Today I hiked on the trail of the Reconquista in Asturias down which the gallant Goth Pelagius chased the Muslims, beginning the reconquest of Spain! 🇪🇸
This statue of Pelagius stands in Covadonga. Medieval sources call him a Goth but modern historians in Spain think maybe he was a native.
Either way, by the 8th century the Goths were mostly of local ancestry so he would probably only be 1/4 Nordic if he was a Goth.

Exclusive BAP interview for Patrons
Bronze Age Pervert (BAP) joins me on JIVE TALK to discuss ancient history and how the heroic ideals of the past can shape our future. This is your chance to hear BAP’s unfiltered thoughts on the classical antiquity that inspires his philosophy, from the vitality of the Bronze Age to the inspiration of the Renaissance. We also talk about Plato and religion and in the second half we also discuss the misinterpretation in population geneticists of ancient cultures and elite dominance models of cultural replacement.

What Is An Englishman?
The English ethnic group traces its origins to 5th-century Germanic migrants who integrated with native Britons. Modern genetic studies confirm English people are 25-47% Anglo-Saxon, 11-57% Iron-age Briton, and 14-43% French ancestry, first documented by…

Podcast: Interview with Ralph Harrison of the Odinist Fellowship
Did you know Britain kickstarted the Bronze age?
The oldest evidence of tin ore mining in Europe is in Britain.
Around 2200 BC Britain's Beaker folk switched from using copper tools, to tin rich Bronze and the rest of Europe followed afterwards. Britain started Europe's Bronze Age.
tin-Bronze was in use earlier in Anatolia (3000 BC), and relied first on meagre local tin deposits but later on tin mines in Central Asia, but even in 2200 BC, half the metal objects in Anatolia were still just made of copper.
But later on, even West Asia switched to using British tin, and it became the main producer of tin ingots for all the Mediterranean.
You're welcome.
