A citadel is the core fortified area of a town or city, acting as its defensive heart. Often a castle or fortress, it represents the strongest point of defense and a refuge during sieges or attacks. Essentially a 'little city' within a larger one, citadels historically provided strategic and symbolic importance, offering protection for rulers, garrisons, and sometimes civilian populations. Examples include the Tower of London and the Citadel of Aleppo, showcasing their enduring architectural and military significance.
In 2008, John T. Koch attributed the origins of the Celts to the Castro culture during the Atlantic Bronze Age, a theory supported by Barry Cunliffe.
