Fun fact: Celts were originally central European, but the British Isles and Brittany were the only places Celtic culture survived the Romans.

    Some Celts drowned when doggerland became dogger island then dogger bank as the glaciers retreated. The sea flooding all the land must have been a surprise for them, no high land was high enough

    That was a few thousand years before Celts were around.

    Edit: It was also pretty slow; it was a couple of hundred miles across and took three thousand years to disappear, so it's on the order of a few miles in a lifetime.
