Early Israel and the Surrounding Nations

CHAPTER II
5/54

Anthropologists connect these Libyans with the Kelts of our own islands.

At one time, it would seem, a Kelto-Libyan race existed, which spread along the northern coast of Africa to western Europe and the British Isles.

The Amorites would appear to have been an eastern offshoot of the same race.
Wherever they went, the members of the race buried their dead in rude stone cairns or cromlechs, the dolmens of the French antiquarians.

We find them in Britain and France, in the Spanish peninsula, and the north of Africa.

They are also found in Palestine, more especially in that portion of it which was the home of the Amorites.
