Continental Celtic Language

The Continental Celtic language died out during the decline of the Western Roman Empire in the late 5th century AD. A concrete example of this type of Celtic language is the Gaulish language that used to be the popular tongue in Gaul. There are several Gaulish inscriptions that are evident in both Greek and Latin writings, as well as documents found in France and North Italy. There are hundreds of European inscriptions that manifest proper names of people and places that have strong Celtic influences.
