Picts: Definition and Links by Encyclopedian.com - All about Picts (311 words)
The Picts were the inhabitants of Caledonia (Scotland), north of the River Forth.
From the 6th century AD onwards the Picts came under increasing pressure from the invasions of the Dalriadan Scots in the west and the Vikings in the east.
It remains uncertain whether or not the Picts were Celts although most available placename evidence tends to support the theory that they were Brythonic Celts.
