The English and the Celts - no genocide?
#92
Quote:But Aryaman, that's hardly surprising, now is it. After 1,500 years of
intermingling due to aculturation between Britons and Anglo-Saxons
living in England and (especially in the last 200 years, since the industrial
revolution) economic migration for better jobs within the British
Isles, you should not be expecting to see the regional genetic variation
between East and West which would originally have existed, should you.
There might conceivably have been an enormous genetic cline between
East and West in the year 500, which, due to the above factors of
evening-out, might be scarcely visible today. Which is what you are
saying is the case.

Ambrosius / Mike
I don´t know the size of modern poblational movements in Britain, but they don´t have any effect on the whole picture, even if you had a higher genetic West/East cline, it is among populations with a very similar genetic pool as a whole, and the general picture is that East England is, like Noerthern France, a border province of the Western European Genetic Region.
