The La Tène Culture
The La Tène culture, named after the archaeological site of La Tène in Switzerland, was a European Iron Age culture that flourished around 450 BCE. This culture was characterized by its art, which was heavily influenced by the Greeks and Etruscans, and its social structure, which was based on warrior elites.

As the La Tène people moved into these areas, they brought with them their unique art style and social structure, influencing the local cultures.
