    As you well know, the charge is that they colonised and subjugated England (as it is now called), expelling the Celts into Cornwall and Wales.

    The historical evidence for a sort of mass Romano-Celtic exodus to the west is pretty sketchy, actually. The suggestion is that most Celts stayed where they were, inter-married and were subsumed within Anglo-Saxon society.

    What sort of evidence?

    DNA? Documentary? Archeological? Dislike of Cornishmen?

    Genetic, yes. Plus there's no evidence to support ethnic cleansing/genocide theories.
