Linguists start compiling the first ever complete dictionary of ancient Celtic.

More than 1 000 words used as far back as 325BCE will be collected for insight into a past linguistic landscape.

The vast majority of the material has been lost in the mists of time. But the remnants of a language spoken in parts of the UK and Ireland 2 000 years ago are being collected.
