"Toch kan men niet zeggen dat het moderne Fries nu nog een Saksisch dialect
is, inmiddels is het een zelfstandige taal geworden. Hetzelfde kan men van
het Engels zeggen, dat ook (Angel-)Saksische voorouders heeft."

What about a theory, that Frisian is the rest of Anglo-Saxon on the 
continent. The Frisian settled the coastal regions from South of Calais up 
to Denmark without discontinuation as there is today. For me it is plausible 
with respect to commerce etc. if in the middle ages there were Anglo-Saxon 
speaking people on both sides of the Channel.

Hi,

Archeologen weten dat in de huidige provincie
Friesland in de loop van de 9e en 10e eeuw een
volledige andere bevolking is komen wonen.
Ik dacht dat onder meer Boele daarover gepubliceerd
heeft.
