Abstract

The "History of Galicia" by Manuel Murguía laid the foundations of a Galician nationalism based on a differential fact, Celtism, which had remained unchanged from its origins to his own time. To support his theory, Murguía tried to show that no conquest, not even the Roman one, had suppressed the Celtic customs. The epigraphic sources, with the votive inscriptions that mentioned “Celtic” divinities, became a useful resource to show that survival, as well as the independence and spirit of rebellion of the Galician people.
