To the regret of my encyclopaedic side, I couldn't treat every single warrior woman in my thesis, and the celtic side would be too much. However, I mentioned Scathach at the beginning of my chapter about England. A few legendary British (in a broad sense) swordwomen are mentioned in the Faerie Queene, in comparison with Elizabeth I or Britomart (or both), and I checked a companion to female characters in 'British' legends.
Of a sort, because in the end it aims to become a printed comic, obviously. ;)
