@beyonddarkages @RealMandeville Out of curiosity, how secure is the link to the conquest?
@beyonddarkages @RealMandeville (just aware that Saxons used to be blamed for villas in GB but now thought disappeared due to economics!)
@caitlinrgreen @RealMandeville Good point - it's always easy to find an 'other' to be the scapegoat.
@beyonddarkages @RealMandeville Earlier historians etc specialised in it! Sometimes true, but also can be coincidence or just assumption eg>
@beyonddarkages @RealMandeville > debate over whether Arab conquests led to end of colonnaded streets in towns of eastern Med ;)
