There are a number of problems with the content as stated. In particular:

  • It is far from certain that the Picts spoke a Celtic (or even Indo-European) language, as the article on the Picts states.
  • It is apparently false to say, as the article does, that the custom of body-painting had died out among all other Celts at the time of Roman contact. This custom was still practised among the British and Irish, as Caesar said in his Gallic Wars. --Saforrest 20:18, August 26, 2005 (UTC)
