@Harry_cartoons > is case to be made that Ambrosius Aurelianus based at Lincoln, esp as provincial capital w/ evidence of continuity :)
@caitlinrgreen Thanks, didn't know that. Must investigate at some point. Seems Lincoln rather interesting during this period.
@Harry_cartoons oh, it's well worth a look! Significant evidence for British-Anglian continuity---will put up a post at some point :-)
@caitlinrgreen I'm based in London & East Anglia but Lincoln still unknown territory to me apart from the cathedral town. Due a trip I think
@caitlinrgreen Yes, true, ASC not history of course but still useful & looks back to 5/6 centuries. Was Gildas not also writing after event?
@Harry_cartoons Writing c.540 on most versions, tho' some date to late 5thC; Constantius has nice stuff on continuing Romanitas from c.480.
