      that was exactly my impression; makes me wonder about the reasons for obscuring (apparently not to deny – so then why? +

      was it primarily because it didn't *need* explicating – while for children, who still had to learn, it did?)

          thus the concept of #darkages because it does allow this vision of starting as independent nation through Alfred

          in fact, Freeman argues for a much longer continuity, all the way to the English' continental origins
