Yes, of course there have been numerous migrations to and from Britain over the centuries, but the one I'm concerned with is specifically the Anglo Saxon migration in the early medieval period and how it seems to have both occurred in great enough numbers to leave a sizable linguistic and genetic footprint, yet at the same time small enough numbers to have left what is essentially a negligible footprint in the history and archaeology. I'm just trying to make sense of that discrepancy.
