Celtic Warriors and Carnyx Players
This Gundestrup Cauldron panel (150 BC - 1 AD) shows mounted and foot soldiers with oval shields, spears, and helmets preparing for battle, while a line of warriors raises carnyces—long, dragon-headed war trumpets used to incite fear and summon the gods. This could be a sacrificial procession or ceremonial march into war, emphasizing Celtic valor and divine sanction.
