Going through my old thesis chapters to remove Anglo-Saxon and put in Early English as an alternative, you see just how common this word is. In most publications on early medieval England and hell, even Anglo-Saxon England as a periodic publication of articles.
The problem is that it's not really about a definitive type of art style like La Tene. Plus looking at it from a historical period. There's a lot there: ethnic identity, kingdoms, various levels of identity all mixed up with a very racist academic historiography.

Although I know in the pre-historic stuff there are certain scholars who seem to cling to the Celtic stuff haha. Makes me go "hmmmm".

Ohhh you know where I stand on this!! It's not bloody 'Celtic' It takes in a massive fusion of cultures, and interpretations!

Iron Age the same, Jankuhn and such making a master race narrative in the 40s. We are only now touching on how wildly varied identities were! ( The N African Roman(?) in Bettystown being only one!). We all now have to fight the sins of the fathers in history and archaeology

Oh yeah from what I've touched on in the very late Iron Age stuff back when I did Classics and also now a little, some very bad stuff.
