He's not wrong.

The British Isles were occupied by a lot of different people early on before 1066. The British are almost as much Norse as the Scandinavians.

Many stereotypical Celtic features actually come from breeding with Norwegian Vikings.

Ptolemy writes about the area that what would become Dublin. It had been a port centuries before the Vikings came in. That's mainly what I was getting at. Granted the archealogical record isnstill being analysed and I'm hungover as all get.

What's really interesting is to consider that Snori Sturluson says the Vikings were those that fled Troy and went north while Aeneas went south. I studied Norse mythology for a while. Interesting stories and I like that their gods can die.

Yeah the Vikings are really interesting.

They're far more deep than the stereotypical tribal raiders that they are often shown as.

Thankfully I've successfully integrated into American continental society as a redneck hillbilly with sexual dysmorphism and internet fetishes from the 90s. There'fore I am no longer bound by viking or leprechaunian tendancies.

That's not normal. That's hoarder level thinking, undiagnosed autism, or a full blown meticulous record keeping nazi like thinker.
