Quote:Saxons were a minority of the 'invaders', the majority were (after the Romans left) Jutes and Angles from Denmark and later Normandy (Norse-French)....yet we speak a minority Germanic language and are called 'Saxons' as a result by the Gaelic and Cymric speaking peoples of the British Isles (Scots, Irish, Welsh, IOM, West Welsh, etc)oops...I forgot the other Danes and Norsemen...!

The enemy is less likely to get wind of an advance of cavalry, if the orders for march were passed from mouth to mouth rather than announced by voice of herald, or public notice. Xenophon
