I remember the author, a very interesting article, thanks, it will repay reading more than once.

I'd forgotten about Hound King Son of the Holly but alongside the Silchester Irish memorial stone it's, I think, one of the only two finds putting the Irish in an urban setting in the period.

I thought- given we all accept that some of the British moved to Armorica- that it might be worth seeing if we know anything about the social structure the would be Bretons took with them.  Checking Celtic Culture- A Historical Encyclopedia edited by Koch it seems there were many free farmers on 40 acre holdings.

the interesting thing about Maqui Coline is that he is a potential ancestor of mine.... my surname is Hollin which in old english is holegn ie of the holly....
