Timeline of Galician history

Paleolithic

Mesolithic

  • 10th millennium BC
    • The Allerød oscillation occurs, an interstadial deglaciation that weakens the rigorous conditions of the Ice Age.
    • End of Upper Palaeolithic and beginning of the Mesolithic period.
    • The populations sheltered in Iberia, descendants of the Cro-Magnon, given the deglaciation, migrate and recolonize all of Western Europe, thus spreading the R1b haplogroup populations (still dominant, in variant degrees, from Iberia to Scandinavia).
    • Azilian culture in southern France and northern Iberia (to the mouth of the Douro river).

Neolithic

Bronze Age

Iron Age

    • The poem Ora Maritima, written by Avienius in the 4th century and based on the Massaliote Periplus of the 6th century BC, states that all of western Iberia was once called for the name of its people, the Oestrimini, which were replaced by an invasion of the Saephe or Ophis (meaning Serpent). From then on western Iberia would have been known as Ophiussa (Land of the Serpents). The poem probably translates the impact of the Second wave of Celtic migrations in the 7th century BC. The poem also describes the various ethnic groups present at that time:
      • The Saephe or Ophis, today seen as probably Hallstatt culture Celts, in all of western Iberia (modern Portugal) between the Douro and the Sado rivers.
      • The Cempsi, probably Hallstatt culture Celts, in the Tagus mouth and the south up to the Algarve.
      • The Cynetes or Cunetes in the extreme south and some cities along the Atlantic coast (such as Olissipo, modern Lisbon), probably autochthonous Iberian (even if strongly or totally celticized over the next centuries).
      • The Dragani, Celt or Proto-Celt of the first wave, in the mountainous areas of Galicia, northern Portugal, Asturias and Cantabria.
      • The Lusis, probably a first reference to the Lusitanians, similar to the Dragani (Celt or Proto-Celt of the first wave).
  • 5th century BC
  • 4th century BC
