Dazbo BS: English Irish Scots Are All One Sez NYT (72* d) RE: BS: English Irish Scots Are All One Sez NYT 16 Mar 07


Stigweard,

I'm leaning towards (based on some arguments that I've read and I like the idea) that there was a sizable "Saxon" population in eastern England before the Romans left and quite possibly a lot earlier.

Could it be that the tales of saxon invasion actually refer to an elite taking over a linguistically similar country? Or could it be that these were tales of an existing English invading the "celtic" west of these islands?
