Trace the rise and fall of the ancient Celts, a group of hundreds of independent warrior tribes defeated by the Roman Empire. Uploaded 20-07-20--One summer evening in 335 BCE, Alexander the Great was resting by the Danube River when a band of strangers approached his camp. Alexander had never seen anything like these tall, fierce-looking warriors with huge golden neck rings and colorful cloaks. They were Keltoi or Celts— a collection of independent tribes spread across Europe. Philip Freeman details the rise and fall of the ancient Celts.

Explore the viruses which can cause herpes, how the infection affects your body, and what makes it so hard to prevent and cure.--In the 1st century CE, Emperor Tiberius made an unprecedented decision: banning kissing at all public events.
