The Frisian Connection


In the summer of 2002,  a DNA study by University College London showed that y-chromosomes taken from central England and Friesland are indistinguishable from each other.  Using genetics as a textbook, the researchers proclaimed that the Traditionalist view of a mass migration of Germanic people into Britain was correct after all.  Thousands upon thousands of 'Anglo-Saxons' made Britain their new home.  This completely debunks Historical Revisionism that has spread the false doctrine that the number of Anglo-Saxons were few and that it was only cultures that migrated, not people.      

But just who were the Frisians?  The map at bottom left shows the original homelands of the Frisians (and therefore the English).  It can be found on the internet under an English translation by Edward Sproston entitled "Origin and migration of the Frisians" (redbad.tripod.com/herkonsteng.htm).  The 'Anglo-Saxons' not only used the Frisian islands as stepping stones in their migration to Britain, but also as areas in which they settled permanently.  Archaeological artifacts found in Frisia have been labeled as 'Anglo-Frisian' and 'Jutish-Frisian' indicating the place of origin of the settlers:  the Danish peninsula.  Archaeological, historical, and linguistic evidence also confirm this fact.

The smaller map at bottom right shows the location of Greater Friesland that came into being as a result of these mass migrations.
