Quote:Vortigern was no supreme king. Gildas is clear in a statement that he ruled together with a Council.
Damn good point!
Quote:Good question. Maybe because hiring even more Saxons might have upset a balance? Cunedda, though not a citizen, could at least be seen as a Briton. And why not ask the pagenses? Maybe because there was no military structure in place to ask? Germanic federates were there for the asking, as was Cunedda and his sons, but as far as I know there was no such group of military available in the inner provinces yet.
I was saying Pagneses to include Cornovian territory, but maybe that was Liutcoyt by then. Do you really think there was no military structure in that region?
