The authors of the study concluded that these individuals, in all probability, were Welsh. I concur. How you determined they were Irish (in Yorkshire?) is beyond me. I can understand someone linking the northern tribes (above the Wall) to the Irish through an earlier immigration, but Not in a Roman-era York cemetery.
Hello Alanus,
Of course these individuals were neither Welsh nor Irish but Brigantes. I was implying that the Brigantes were as much related to the Irish as the Welsh.
Incidentally, I see I am classed as a Tiro. Is not that the name of Cicero's slave who invented some shorthand symbols i.e. & etc?
