"The traditional historical narrative is one of brutal conquest, with  
invaders from the North wiping out and replacing the pre-existing population.  
But a new study, published in the Journal of Archaeological Science, hints at 
a  more peaceful process. Dr Andrew Millard, from Durham University, is one 
of the  study's authors."

Interesting. This parallels paleoanthropological evidence that no mass  
bloodshed followed the Franks' takeover of Gaul (not that they were pussycats 
in  specific battles).
