Well, duh!!

The Vikings began invading the British Isles around the 6th - 7th centuries. The rich monasteries around the islands were unguarded and easy pickings. The looting of Lindisfarne and Kells monasteries are infamous. And those lusty Vikings weren’t just interested in gold and jewels - they carried off lots of female slaves.

Do I really have to spell it out for you?

“... it was primarily the women who were of Celtic origin.”

In my family, it is a common saying: “There is a viking in the closet somewhere...”

How ironic. My name first name is a family surname originating from Old Norse, and I have Celtic blood.
