This Cornishman compares the clannish culture of the people of Sennen Cove, at the western edge of Britain, to that of the Indian caste system. Dick George, interviewed in 1982, grew up on the sandy ridge above the cove but was still regarded as an outsider by the covers who would discourage their daughters from marrying his kind.
This explains why the POBI study discovered Cornish formed their own genetic cluster, distinct from Devon. Intermarriage with men in the neighbouring village, let alone with Welshmen or Devonians, was discouraged. What preserved Cornish as a distinct genetic group in England, while much of the rest homogenised into a single genetic cluster, is lack of domestic migration during the Industrial Revolution - no one was moving to Cornwall in the early modern period.
But since the 1980’s that has been changing fast. The 2021 census recorded only around 117,350 identifying as Cornish in the UK. This makes them less than 20% of the population of Cornwall.

A Guardian article on the dna findings is predictably concerned with a false narrative of science overturning prejudiced assumptions.

It quotes David Dawson, director of the Wiltshire Museum, which holds the remains. “We’re so used to the assumption of men do everything, men are the leaders, men are the metalworkers. Here we have smoking gun evidence of a female metalworker. And metalworking was the space science of its day.”

Are we really used to the idea that witches are all men? Also "metalworker" is misleading as this was not a smith - the grave contained what are interpreted as "burnishing stones" for polishing gold or other metal. Is it unheard of for a woman to polish something? Seems normal to me.

The article finishes with a quote from the irritatingly woke Mary Beard who says "So often we have assigned the sex of an ancient skeleton partly on the basis of our own assumptions about sex and gender roles – if it is buried with a sword, it’s male, with a necklace, it’s female,”

But this grave didn't contain a sword and it did contain a necklace. By Beard's own claim, our sexist assumptions would lead to identifying the grave as female. It did contain a possibly ceremonial stone axe placed on the shaman’s chest, as well as boar tusks - both of which are seen as conventionally male. But the pointed bone necklace isn’t. The actual reason the bones were thought to belong to a male is because the skeleton was “stout”.

They twist every find to support a left wing narrative when in reality it’s pure fiction. This has been going on for decades and is the subject of my forthcoming book.

Reconstructing a West-Germanic Anthropogonic Myth from Medieval Ecclesiastical Sources

This proposed anthropogony is based on Old English and Middle High German additions to the Biblical creation of Adam. These fragments are so remarkably similar and provide a non-Christian folkloric background to the creation of Adam that we may propose a reconstructed mythic narrative as follows:

"When Weden shaped Man,
he made him whole from eight things -
the bones from the stone,
the flesh from the earth,
the blood from the sea,
the sweat from the dew,
the tears from the salt,
the hair from the grass,
the mood from the clouds,
the eyes from the sun.
Then he gave him his breath, so that he may keep it for him."

During this reconstruction, choices naturally had to be made, for example the Biblical deity was exchanged for Weden, whom we know shaped Man as attested in other Germanic sources and also details peculiar to each of the sources that weren't shared in common had to be omitted, as we believe these are additions by their respective authors. What is presented here is a very basic version of the narrative that preserves the physical and cosmological beliefs particular to the high Middle Ages. Note that the total number of things that Man is shaped from is nine. You can find the sources for the fragments that are compiled here in the comments of this post.

Here Xenia is explained by Menelaos in Iliad 3:

“Zeus’ law “referred to in the new Nolan film refers to Xenia. It was a ritualised system of obligations for both hosts and guests. It was not uniquely Greek but existed in many Indo-European cultures. It was enforced by a widespread belief that the gods, whether that be Jupiter or Odin etc, sometimes disguise themselves as mortals and test the hospitality of wealthy and powerful people - rewarding the hospitable and punishing the others. It was not an obligation to be peaceful, to welcome enemies in your midst, an excuse to ignore local laws or a means to get free stuff from people. The suitors in The Odyssey abuse hospitality and so they are rightly killed. In the Viking version of the custom, you had to provide basic hospitality to the guest while they were in your home, but once they had left you could follow them and kill them without violating the custom which only prevented you from killing them while they were inside your home. I made a video explaining how the custom works

More WOKE archaeology: a Bronze Age barrow near Stonehenge contained two skeletons, initially thought to be a male shaman with a female added on top later on. They lost the female skeleton. The “male” one was never tested until now and it turns out it was genetically female.

The barrow of the so called “Upton Lovell shaman”contained unusual bone jewellery and some tools possibly associated with testing metals. Some even think it contains tattooing equipment. Anyway, this person clearly had specialist roles in the culture and was important enough to receive a barrow burial. The fact it was a woman is not as shocking as the media is claiming, nor does this “challenge” a sexist, patriarchal assumption. The gender was missasigned because morphological assessment and metric analysis are fallible methods. Genetic testing is more reliable. That’s the only story here.

The average Englishman is more Germanic than anything else.

43% Continental North European (CNE) – the component maximised in early medieval Anglo-Saxon-derived populations and coming from Denmark and Lower Saxony.
31% Western British & Irish (WBI) – the component associated with pre-Anglo-Saxon Brythonic or "Celtic" ancestry.
26% Continental Western European (CWE) – representing the third ancestral axis in the model deriving first from Alemannic-like Germanic tribes such as the Franks who arrived in the 6th-7th century (Silva et al 2026) but also partly from French speaking migrants in the 11th-12th centuries.

This data was calculated by chat GPT taking the regional data from Gretzinger et al 2022, and comparing it with ONS data on regional population density of native whites in England.

I am constantly told by people who don't understand what a weighted average is, that England is more "Celtic" (Brythonic) than Germanic (Early English aka Anglo-Saxon). This simply is not true.
