When in 1944 Jacobsthal laid foundations for the study of early Celtic art, foundations so enduring and so comprehensive that they still extend far beyond the flimsy structures that have shot up since, he invented an 'Orientalizing Celtic Style' as a tardy and barbaric counterpart to 'Greek orientalizing'. Having invented it, he left it, real but largly unexplained; and there it still is, very real and still in need of explanation (Jacobsthal, 1944, 156). The difficulty was, and is, that although the Celts had in their hands 'painted Greek vases and good bronze figurework. . . they did not decide for Greek humanity, for gay and friendly imagery; instead they chose the weird magical symbols of the East'; yet there are no oriental goods on the workshop shelves in 'Latbneopolis', no vases, no drinkinghorns, no swords, no bangles. There is no single undoubted oriental object in a Celtic grave of the early period. So Jacobsthal asked, and we still must ask, how, if there were no trade with the east and no imports to be copied, do we explain the impressively strong influence of the Orient on early Celtic art? This question is my point of departure
