Default Re: Myths of British Ancestry (2)
I post on Skadi, and that's a gross caricature of the understandings held there. I looked at the two quotes, and broadly agree with both [at least in terms of their application to the eastern parts of lowland England] but fail to see how they support 'wiping out'. Devastation did occasionally occur, but on a highly localised scale [and often independent of Germanic involvement, what with plague, economic breakdown and societal collapse]. Other parts saw the Britons fare better.

What have the woefully poor educational standards in my country have to do with this? I suggest you help inform people rather than mock them.
