FOOTNOTES:
[1] The great incorrectness, and occasional inconvenience of this name
will be seen in the sequel.
[2] See the chapter on the ethnology of Greece.
[3] In these notices of the characteristics of the different Spanish
districts, provinces, or kingdoms, I follow the “Handbook for Spain,”--a
work well known to be, for its kind, of more than ordinary value.
[4] I prefer this word to _Roman_, because it by no means follows that
because a settlement was made by a _Legion_ or a part of one, it was
therefore Roman.
[5] It would be more accurate to say that _Llocgyr_ was the Welsh name
of the supposed maritime parts of England.

Quasi-Germanic Gauls.

by Zeuss (see _Greek Slavonians_), and has been carried to an extreme
length by Fallermayer.
