In Greek mythology, Hyperboreans were a tribe who lived far to Greece's north. Contained in what has come down to us of Greek literary tradition are texts that identify the Hyperboreans with the Celts, or Hyperborean lands with Celtic ones. This groundbreaking book studies the texts that make or imply this identification, and provides reasons why some ancient Greek authors identified a mythical people with an actual one. Timothy P. Bridgman demonstrates not only that these authors mythologize history, but that they used the traditional Greek parallel mythical world to interpret history throughout ancient Greek culture, thought and literature.

This book is written in a style that appeals to the reader. Not a single moment was I bored when reading the "Hyperboreans". It was particularly interesting to see that there were some extracts from greek writers in the original ancient greek text, as well as in an english translation. The bibliography was litterally vast. Whoever is interested in history will fing this book to be an absolute must, seeing that it provides a great insight on the people it examines. Some of the information it contains really surprised me. I absolutely recomend this book.
