I particularly liked the article about the fierce fighting, red headed Scotmen, because my father's Irish (protestant) surname mean fierce fighter or warrior.

LOL! There's both Scottish and Irish in my background, and supposedly they like nothing better than a good fight!

The fiercest warriors of them all were the Xiongnu who were closely related to the Scythians...some have tried to link them to the Picts which, would seem to fit as far as size, (small),complexion, (dark) and disposition, (war like). They all had a reputation for body painting and tattos.
