The English and the Celts - no genocide?

Of course, no-one believes that, and archaeology disproves it. Yet Coates uses this to support a ‘vacated east’.

Hi Vortigern,

Some parts have been shown by archaeology to have been vacated. West Heslerton in Deira for example is one of 'complete social and economic collapse'. Kevin Leahy's work on Lincolnshire supports a rapid and dramatic decline, one which resulted in a great loss of wheat production and, presumably, its knock on effects. York and Lincoln both suffered.
