      Of course, this all largely separate/additional to evidence from inscriptions/military units &c—see, for example, https://twitter.com/caitlinrgreen/status/744866290846818305 … :)

      And, of course, worth noting that is some potential evidence for ppl of East Asian ancestry in Roman London too…https://twitter.com/caitlinrgreen/status/778304115638202368 …

      Some evidence for people of 'East Asian' ancestry living in Roman London — new post :) http://www.caitlingreen.org/2016/09/east-asian-people-roman-london.html … pic.twitter.com/ibCwBoXakZ

      In sum, seems clear that there is, in fact, notable evidence for diversity in Roman Britain, & that we can start to put figures on this :)

      I don't have the time to read all the interesting stuff you posted RN but I don't think anyone was doubting a large number of North Africans

      In Roman Britain or throughout the empire. The crux of this silly debate is whether the BBC was PC propagandizing history with sub saharans

      I think taleb was making the argument that there is almost no genetic evidence of sub saharan Africans in England.

      Yet the data from York, London, Leicester etc relates directly to ppl of 'Sub-Saharan' ancestry :) And as I said yesterday, modern DNA >

      Thanks for the clarification! Personally I think this whole debate is sad. Were stuck on something the ancients apparently rarely considered
