Professor Bryan Sykes of Oxford University has, according to press reports, produced a study which claims that it was the Spanish (who arrived in Britain about 4000BC) who were the predecessors to the Celts who in turn did not appear until 3500 years later.

DNA tests have determined that persons with Celtic ancestry in the British Isles have almost identical genetic 'fingerprints' to the inhabitants of Spanish coastal regions today.
