Abstract
[Autom. eng. transl.] The Celts, moving from their headquarters throughout the fourth century, invested northern Greece and Macedonia at the beginning of the third. Stopped by the Aetolians in Delphi in 279 and by Antigono Gonata in Lysimachia in 277, they spread to Asia Minor, where they were defeated by Attalus I and where they then settled in the region that took the name of Galatia from them. These victories ensured the Aetolians control of central Greece and the two rulers, respectively, the throne of Macedon and Pergamum.
The invasion had significant repercussions on the balance of Greece and Asia Minor in the third century, which the book aims to highlight in an overall picture, including the presence of the Celts in Italy in the fourth century and the interference with the Greeks of 'West and the motherland.
