A Orienta o Espacial Solar dos CeltasKeywords: Celtic religion , Solar orientation , Iron Age Cosmology Abstract: This work aims to analyse the spatial orientation of the ancient Celts. This orientation was mainly based on the movement of the sun. The way from the sunrise to the sunset was particularly important and had religious connotation. This movement of the star in the sky was believed to be propitious. There were beliefs that horses, aquatic birds, and other animals, could conduct or accompany the star throughout the sky or in the underworld sea.
