Subject: Language history

Scotland has not been without its language essentrics.

Charles Mackay (1814 –1889) published the Gaelic Etymology Of The Languages
Of Western Europe (http://www.archive.org/details/gaelicetymologyo00mackuoft
)

John Pinkerton (1758 — 1826) thought the Picts were ancient Goths and that
Scots was a descendant of a Picto-Gothic language.
