By ~200 BC, it is estimated that mean European temperatures were at least 1degC below those of the warmest post-glacial period (possibly as much as 2degC, which latter would be a highly significant number).
In the broadscale, the period ~900 to ~200 BC is one where it is thought that the Polar vortex was expanding / cooling, therefore both increasing the jet strength (greater vigour of depressions) and nudging the whole pattern southwards.
These events are consistent with the change in temperature regime, as it implies alteration of jet-stream patterns etc., which often accompany major changes of climatic type.
