Default The Celts : a comparative analysis

I've read many things about "the celts", from the traditionalist view to the more avang garde theories.
My aim here is to hear YOUR opinions on the subject.
To start I would like to propose one opening question:

Celtic phenotype: Can we truly state that the "celts" were morphologically homogeneous? And if so which was their true phenotype? Did the British and Irish celts bred with the local populations to give birth to a new phenotype and to what extent were they different to their continental "cousins"? Is it plausible to state that both the culture and the physical traits of modern day Irish resemble the "celtish" phenotype of ages past.

Cheers and happy commenting
