What Was Life Like in Iron Age Britain? | Ancient Britain with Ray Mears
Around 800 BC, Britain entered the Iron Age. This era saw the gradual introduction of iron working technology, although the general adoption of iron artefacts did not become widespread until after 500-400 BC.
As the Iron Age progressed through the first millennium BC, strong regional groupings emerged, reflected in styles of pottery, metal objects and settlement types. Technological innovation increased and the population of Britain grew substantially, probably exceeding one million. This population growth was partly made possible by the introduction of new crops, including improved varieties of barley and wheat, and increased farming of peas, beans, flax and other crops.

The Celtic languages develope as well as the Britonic culture. Local identities form which would lead to the British tribes the Romans would encounter during their invasions. We also look at how cornwal, Devon, Kent, Canterbury, silurian and Ordovician got their name.

Iron Age Britain: The Roundhouse
Here are six incredible bushcraft shelters from the Iron Age of Britain. The largest is 50ft and is made with a timber frame of oak, and rafters of alder. The roof is thatched with water reed and the walls are wattle and daub. This giant roundhouse can be found at Butser Ancient Farm in the south of England. It was inspired by the "Little Woodbury" archeology discovery that was famously excavated in the 1930's on the Salisbury Plains. This recreation is the largest roundhouse I have ever seen. You really need to see it in person to witness how majestic this build is!

What did Iron Age women wear? (cir. 300-200BCE, NW Europe / Britain)
After many questions and chats, here are the two examples of Iron Age clothes I use myself when portraying crafts and life around 300-200BCE, both based on finds from a bog in Denmark (original in Mational Museum of Denmark):
--- the Huldremose Woman's ensemble.
(a woolen skirt, a woolen shall, 2 sheepskin cloaks that I don't have replicas of yet AND an undertunic made of vegetal materials, be it linen, nettle fibres or else. This is the newly discovered element: the Huldremose Woman being a bog body, all vegetal fibres have been eaten away by the acidity of the bog. But on her thigh researchers found a print of a woven fabric in vegetal fibres... prooving she wore an under-tunic / undergarment that has simply disappeared in the bog, protecting her skin from the wool and the wool from s...

The Celts: The Mysterious Dark Age Masters Of Europe | Lost Treasures | Chronicle
The Celts were an ancient civilization that first mastered iron and dominated Northwest Europe.
The Celts lacked a sense of national identity and lived a semi-nomadic lifestyle, leaving behind simple homesteads. Despite being illiterate in their own languages, the Celts survived into modern times, with their languages persisting in Scotland, Ireland, Wales, and Brittany. Often portrayed as barbarians, the Celts were organized, sophisticated, and technologically advanced, known for their courage in war, flamboyant style, and lack of interest in building empires.
Welcome to Chronicle; your home for all things medieval history! With documentaries covering everything from the collapse of the Roman Empire to the beginnings of the Renaissance, from Hastings to Charlemagne, we'll be exploring ev...

Around 800 BC, Britain entered the Iron Age. This era saw the gradual introduction of iron working technology, although the general adoption of iron artefacts did not become widespread until after 500-400 BC.
As the Iron Age progressed through the first millennium BC, strong regional groupings emerged, reflected in styles of pottery, metal objects and settlement types. Technological innovation increased and the population of Britain grew substantially, probably exceeding one million. This population growth was partly made possible by the introduction of new crops, including improved varieties of barley and wheat, and increased farming of peas, beans, flax and other crops.

Here are six incredible bushcraft shelters from the Iron Age of Britain. The largest is 50ft and is made with a timber frame of oak, and rafters of alder. The roof is thatched with water reed and the walls are wattle and daub. This giant roundhouse can be found at Butser Ancient Farm in the south of England. It was inspired by the "Little Woodbury" archeology discovery that was famously excavated in the 1930's on the Salisbury Plains. This recreation is the largest roundhouse I have ever seen. You really need to see it in person to witness how majestic this build is!

What did Iron Age women wear? (cir. 300-200BCE, NW Europe / Britain)
After many questions and chats, here are the two examples of Iron Age clothes I use myself when portraying crafts and life around 300-200BCE, both based on find...
After many questions and chats, here are the two examples of Iron Age clothes I use myself when portraying crafts and life around 300-200BCE, both based on finds from a bog in Denmark (original in Mational Museum of Denmark):
--- the Huldremose Woman's ensemble.
(a woolen skirt, a woolen shall, 2 sheepskin cloaks that I don't have replicas of yet AND an undertunic made of vegetal materials, be it linen, nettle fibres or else. This is the newly discovered element: the Huldremose Woman being a bog body, all vegetal fibres have been eaten away by the acidity of the bog. But on her thigh researchers found a print of a woven fabric in vegetal fibres... prooving she wore an under-tunic / undergarment that has simply disappeared in the bog, protecting her skin from the wool and the wool from sweat and dirt... as it seems to have always been the case through history!)
I added shoes found in another bog from roughly the same time period, and woolen hoses / tall socks made of fabric copied from an italian find from the mid Iron Age. I believe many people whould have been barefoot in shoes or without them, depending on jobs, season, weather etc... but I, as a modern period interpreter, need my socks in the winter!
--- the Huldremose Peplos.
Found in the same bog as the above, but not in connection. It's not seen as a 2nd garment belonging to the same lady! Also.. it could simply be a piece of cloth and not a peplos. It could be a mattress bag for all we know: It has been found in the 19th c. and ... washed. dried. ironed... before being sent to the museum and curators of the time. So the folds shown in the museum photos have been ''made'' for the display maaaany years ago not found on the garment. Big difference!
Anyhow - there are many depictions and mentions of Iron Age women around Gaul, Germania, Dacia, etc wearing a peplos or ''tube dress'' like this. Over an undertunic made of vegetal fibres MOST probably: it's both logical, has been done for millenias and is the case on the Huldremose Woman's outfit from the same spot and same time period.
...
one day I'll do a video about hair styles too ;)
- When is the Iron Age?
''Iron Age'' in Britain is usually 800BC to 43AD, date of the Roman conquest by Claudius. In France, 800BC-52BC (battle of Alesia and Roman conquest).
For me... well... there is a very early iron ring found in Scotland dating back to 900BC, and I consider 52BC as the ''end'' of the Iron Age as I come from France myself!
So here: 900BCE to 100BCE is what I research mainly in terms of ''Iron Age'' life. Before much Roman contact with Britain. But eh, you do you ;)

The Celts were an ancient civilization that first mastered iron and dominated Northwest Europe.
The Celts lacked a sense of national identity and lived a semi-nomadic lifestyle, leaving behind simple homesteads. Despite being illiterate in their own languages, the Celts survived into modern times, with their languages persisting in Scotland, Ireland, Wales, and Brittany. Often portrayed as barbarians, the Celts were organized, sophisticated, and technologically advanced, known for their courage in war, flamboyant style, and lack of interest in building empires.
