3. Of the Iron Period I need say nothing — ^we all know that, fix)m the time when the use of iron was first discovered, this metal has never ceased to be employed. Through the discussion of these questions, which I fear some will think almost irrelevant to our subject, we approach the period when history begins to dawn upon us, and we begin to have a clearer notion of the condition of the country around us. The geographer Ptolemy ioforms us, and his statement is confirmed by other contemporary ...writers, that the greater part of the interior of Britain was occupied by the extensive tribe of the Brigantes, probably the oldest of the British tribes then existing. All that I can say more Digitized by Google 20 of the Brigantes approaching to anytiimg like certarnty is, that they are considered as one of the branches of the great Celtic race in the West. In Ptolemy's time there was a tribe of the same name in Ireland so situated as to render it almost certain that one was merely a division fix)m the other, but which was the .original I will not venture to decide, though it appears more probable that the Brigantes of Britain had emigrated into Ireland, than the contrary.
