Does anyone not wonder why most people in the British Isles have at least some Scandinavian DNA? I mean, do people think that invaders never have sex with the people they conquer??
Yup. I don't see why this article is at all controversial. Is it shocking to hear that Irish and Scottish people were absorbed in to Dane society? Or that some Saami, or Rus were, too? The Vikings left graffiti in Constantinople, even. They traveled, they took slaves, they took wives, and they had many children.
