There's a surprise. \s

I suppose they thought all those Saxons just sprouted from British soil rather than arriving from, you know, Saxony.

And I do believe that Angles that give you the name Angle land (England).. get there name from coming from that angel of German coast line between The Netherlands and Denmark.. that would be the original Angleland

Actually, the surprise is just how low it is. If Anglo-saxon makes up only 30%, and Roman, Norman and Viking combined are no more than 5%, then the it follows that the main genetic heritage of modern day Britons is Celtic.
