Doesn't make sense. The Picts were simply a confederation of the existing
tribes in the northern part of Scotland with the 'possible' exception of
the
Epidii. That is by mean not really known the tribes amalgamated into
larger
units. There were as many people as there were in that part of Scotland.
In
what way were there not enough people in the northern part of Scotland to
inhabit the northern part of Scotland?
