"Archeology in the Orkneys requires serious Pict and shovel work."

On a serious note. Professor Stephan Oppenheimer says that there's actually an R1b Orkney marker. The Orkney male marker (Vikings) spread to Iceland along with the female markers from Ireland...that's where they got the women, Ireland. (Some as wives, some as slaves)

Seriously, Prof. Oppenheimer needs to get a new day job.

The world economy is faltering and somehow professors keep getting funding for R1b Orkney markers that exist in probably twenty-seven people.

I have no doubt that Orkney males had to drag women from Ireland, kicking and screaming in horror, to those barren ilses.

It’s a long woad to tip an O’leary.
