Description

Most of what is known of Celtic ships is taken from Julius Caesar’s descriptions. He detailed every aspect of the vessels from their leather sails to their use of high prows and sterns to “...fit them for use in heavy seas and violent gales”. Other sources are incredibly rare but one depicts a Celtic ship. Known as St Orland’s stone, this Celtic cross stands near Forfars in Angus, Scotland. It shows hunting scenes and, unusually, the image of a ship, the crew clearly covered by a high prow and stern.
