The Celtic Parisi were a powerful tribe located in East Yorkshire and considered by many historians to be related to the Parisii tribe of Gaul due to shared customs - this includes large cemeteries including chariot burials and sword burials. They were a distinctive group of people who farmed the chalk hills of the Yorkshire Wolds. They wore British style ornaments and crafted British style pottery, but kept separate from their large powerful neighbors such as the Brigantes. Their graves were divided by social classes with some warrior graves containing elaborate swords crafted with raised inlays made of enamel, horn, antler and whale ivory.
