Thanks for the additional data. Did any written material in
the Gallic 
language survive?. It was clearly celtic as ther are over 20 places
mainly in western France that end in -oc, or -ac.


Not a lot survives, just proper names and some inscriptions
including the famous Coligny calendar. For an introduction see:

Apologies, Alan. I have now replied.

I had not looked in the box for several days. It usually full of spam
and personal abuse. It is good to get a sensible post.

Bernard. 

Yeah, you prefer the abusing end
