"For example, these laws stated that if an Anglo-Saxon was killed, the "blood money", or "Wergild", payable to the family was up to five times more than the fine payable for the life of a native Celt."
And the Saxons got paid back when the Normans took over, e.g. "Presentment of Englishry."
Still, I favored the Celts first, then the Saxons, the Normans least. But then they cleaned out the Muslims from southern Italy and Sicily and were outstanding Crusaders which I suppose makes up for it.
I suppose the blood money only applied when a male was killed, not a female.
Were the Late Anglo-Saxon Lords any better than the Normans? That question can be argued both pro and con.
