You harassed in bad faith for hours never acknowledging any engagement with the issue. And if people want to engage in a discussion today, let's try this one:https://www.thedigradio.com/podcast/identity-power-and-speech-with-olufemi-taiwo/ …

"Harassed." No one told you to keep responding and not answering simple questions. You kept digging your heels in and several medievalists corrected you. Point out where anyone "harassed" you.

You still have not explained why you think it is appropriate to teach Jutes as a tribe when they exist in a single religious reference.

I never said that I thought it was appropriate to teach Jutes as a tribe when they exist in a single religious reference. Why on earth would I explain something I didn't say?

I mentioned Jutes since Bede mentions them. He’s our only source aside from the laws before the ninth century. You can’t use “7th c Bede” as evidence and then discount him when WE use him. Anyone who studies the medieval period knows that we have to rely on paltry evidence.

“Single religious reference” Bede is quite literally the only way anyone can even begin to understand the period. He obviously isn’t perfect, but this isn’t a poorly written hagiography, it’s still meant to be a history.

And any work that you do read will always have Bede as the sole reference, as there is little else we can use. Archaeology only goes so far.
