      Does anyone have links to good discussion about using anachronistic terminology within medieval studies? I’m being potentially challenged on using early medieval Ireland/Scotland/England but honestly any other terminology at this stage is too general for me. #MedievalTwitter

      I’ve seen ‘Atlantic archipelago’ used for these islands (not, i think, by medievalists); you’d have to explain why at first use of course. Why not ‘Ireland and Britain’? ‘Britain’ can be taken as a geographical and not a political or ethnic designation, no?

      Err well, sort of. Ireland as the island had many names, and Eriu may have been a pre-Christian deity but we are unsure. The Britons were the Brittonic speaking peoples on the Island of Britain, and Brittonic is a Celtic language but calling them Celts is problematic.

      Because “celt” as an ethnonym has a complicated and debated history and we don’t really use the word anymore to describe people in Britain and Ireland. And the “Anglo-Saxons” as you call them weren’t that, and didn’t think of themselves as that term.

      And also came from many places, so they weren’t just Angles or Saxons. And their identity is a complicated one, and subject to a lot of debate. This is something I have studied on great detail.

      No, English or variants on that were much more common even among “Saxons”. If you are interested I recommend reading up on the issue from @ISASaxonists and @erik_kaars.

      I understand, thank you for sharing and also your interest in the subject. It is definitely easier to research white ancestors. I have mine traced back too, pretty far. But I have an ancestor, James Due, who was as far as I know, was a free Black man from New Hampshire.

          But I have no birth record, I know very little about him past census records. My white family has loads of info. Problem is that researching this stuff is hard because it can be expensive, with contradictory info everywhere.

          But I think writing stuff down, what you hear from your parents/grandparents/uncles/aunts is a good start if you can.
