Product Description
In order to brew quality malt whisky, you need three things: barley, dry peat, and the water that flows along the green fields of Scotland, the home of this “liquid gold.” Add to that a few family secrets and a whole lot of patience, and the result is one of the many fine whiskies that has, for centuries, been delighting both amateurs and connoisseurs alike, the world over. “Scotts Wha Hae!” (“We Are Scottish”), for urban and rural Scots alike, is something of a def… More >>

there’s also south koney and sandwich. I’m sorry that this is in the soccer section but i didn’t find any other place to place this question.

Throughout history we were all taught that the noble Scottish, Welsh and Irish came from the “Celts” and that the English were invading “Anglo Saxons”.

However there have been some studies in recenet years [try googling 'stephen oppenheimer'] that traces the ‘Y’ chromosone gene [basically the male line, from father to father to father and on and on] and found that the vast majority of English are genetically the same tribes that inhabited the UK and Ireland before the Anglo-Saxons AND the Celts invaded.

In the southern and eastern parts of England the people are slighty related to this tribe because invaders CHANGED the gene of the English by taking wives etc

How do Irish Americans feel about this? Particularly aimed at the Irish-Americans who believed the English to be another race.

I am curious about English history and want to know more about it. I’d love books that contain images, time line, etc. Of course the book should written in English, and please list the name of the books the authors, i’m more prefer with modern texts.

Thank you!

so according to wikipedia, most people in England arent actually anglo-saxons but indigenous people descending from hunters that moved there just after the ice age.

so now they are looking at history and saying things such as “they only came over in small numbers and became the ruling class similar to that of the normans and romans so they couldnt have replaced most of the population”. well i thought the anglo-saxons moved there because the land was perfect for farming? and not to make money like the romans and normans.
also just because they moved there in small numbers doesnt mean they didnt have an impact on the population. british/english settlers went to america in generally small numbers but over a few generations the colonies had triple the population of the mother country.

but if the english are actually prehistoric hunters and gatherers than what about the scottish and welsh?

so please clear a few things up for me because i dont entirely trust wikipedia.

also if this is true than doesnt that make Nick Griffin correct about the indigenous people of britain?
so these new studies arent exactly correct? or is it some sort of propaganda, because on one website i went on they were praising Nick Griffin… im not sure what to believe.

because when i look at most english people they seem germanic, i know that im mostly of germanic descent because my father has german heritage and my mothers half austrian/hungarian… but most english people i know look either germanic or celtic so what did these ancient people look like?

Do you get annoyed if someone asks you about the Loch Ness monster?
