Celtic manuscripts are ancient texts created by the Celtic peoples, primarily in Ireland and Britain, during the early medieval period. These manuscripts often feature intricate illustrations, decorative lettering, and religious themes, reflecting the rich cultural and spiritual life of the Celts. Notable examples include the Book of Kells and the Lindisfarne Gospels, which showcase the unique artistry of Celtic scribes. These manuscripts were typically produced in monasteries by monks who combined their religious devotion with artistic skill. They served not only as religious texts but also as important historical documents, preserving the language, stories, and traditions of the Celtic people for future generations.
