Even Thatcherism is difficult for them to fully appreciate, and that was only 40 years ago. It's like a teenager stopping smoking to prevent the 60 year old stranger that the stranger he'll become to his younger self from getting lung cancer.

Interesting about the alliteration point. Almost all the king's of Wessex begin their names with an E, couple with an A. ( same thing if ae is being used.) Woder if it was a fashion thing. A sign of worthiness. Copying the names of previous rulers has always been popular, hence some high regnal numbers attached to some names.

The name Belgium has nothing to do with the ancient Belgae, other than that the name was invented and introduced in the mid 19th century when the country was created out of the Spanish or Austrian Netherlands and in typical 19th century fashion they took a name that harked back to an ancient heroic past, like the "Batavian Republic", as the Netherlands were briefly called in Napoleonic times. Many of the ancient Belgic tribes were Germanic by the way.

Thanks for the excellent glimpse into a very interesting part of European history of the western islands, (long after the submerging of what is alluded to, by the name 'Doggerland')... The late and post-roman period, the tribal migrations and the construction of some sort of rulership, (kingdom, despotate and protectorate of various sizes and residual tribal culture's traditions). The time before the "viking age", is a very little known, but probably very dynamic period. Especially before the ecclesiastical transition of the Roman empire into a pseudo-magical empire of that levantine God through the papacy of Rome and its Bishops, as Christianity gained power from the more popular "thing" based 'democracies' with chiefs and small armies and tribal traditions of people (being both artificers, peasants and warriors as required, and having a lifestyle according to necessity, like their ancestry from wherever their decent was) I'm not averse to study both the myths and folktales, as well as chronicles, sagas and other written sources. This should also be substantiated by archaeology and other sciences, if possible. Europe has a variety and diversity in the period, between the Romans and the formation of large ethnicity and geography determined national structures. I'm just some biologist, so excuse my rambling, off-topic to me..

The world that existed pre claudian invasion, didn't exist any more! Then the power vacuums after the legions withdrew 410AD sucked in other userpers. In the end, the Welsh are the real British

I'm interested in my city, on this subject Saxons, the factual archaeological evidence doesn't fit with Gildas Germanicus or Bedes version of StAlbans or verulamium, we don't even know when the term Verulamium wasn't used & people began calling it StAlbans . No evidence of attack by Saxons no evidence of Saxons until middle period, No sceats or other early coinage, just the larger flan pennies are found, not just archaeology but by detecorists. Middle period art , strapends, stirrup mounts etc , StAlbans would have been part of mercia, some people claim the wactlingae ( name given to the A5 watling street) but nothing directly connects any early Saxon tribes with verulamium, archaeology proves people were still living inside thd walled city up until the monastery acquired the land either side of the river Ver , they pulled the town down setting aside anything re usable, the Norman abbey church is testament to this , being made of Roman brick, tile, including roof tile , tegulae with edges bashed off to make them flat brick like . According to the church history, only outlaw's & vagabonds lived there in the 7th century. But they wouldn't say only poor homeless people causing no trouble at all, lived there & we just wanted to kick them out to recycle the usable building materials, CBM & faced flint. Nothing fits bede's writings about verulamium.

There's a good video on KZread by Francis Pryor which explains, with the assistance of the known archaeology what is more likely to have taken place. I can't recommend it enough, I believe it's called Britain AD, but I'm not sure.

King Alfred did not fight the Vikings! He fought the Danes and defeated the Danes. His son and grandson re-conquered Danelaw not 'Vikinglaw'. The term Waelcyn (Viking) does not appear in the Anglo-Saxon chronicles until the early 10thC. It's use in any other time period is incorrect. Vikings appear to have been pirates and opportunists made up of many races - Byzantines, Irish, English, Norse, Danes and many others - they were not a race or tribe of any single people. Just because a term is popular or in common use does not make it correct.

Stop being so pedantic. We all know what he means by the term vikings and how it is interchangeable with Danes. Why is it random KZread posters feel this need to one up qualified professors who no doubt know a lot more about this period than they do. Being a medieval reenacter doesn't make you an academic.

@@mrdarren1045 Who is a mediaeval re-enactor? I do have a suitable Degree and have been studying this particular period for nearly 50 years. Pedantry would appear to be more of your speciality. If I wished to be pedantic I could pick a lot of holes in this lecture - especially with regard to the use of the word Wealas and the dismissal of leaders of the first arrivals as being unlikely as they were all Fathers and Sons and/or Brothers. Of course, that never happend in history in such a sustained manner. The history of Hannibal and his father and Brothers fighting the Romans is obviously dubious as are the Scipios and as for Edward III and his son at Crecy, not to mention Henry V and his Brothers at Azincourt - preposterous! Interestingly, listened to another lecture about that Italian guy Caesar, who invaded France and conquered it and in 55 and 54 BC invaded England and fought the English before retiring to France and having a few more battles aginst the French and Belgians. Not quite right, but we all know who I mean. Don't you?
