The Picts have long been regarded as enigmatic savages who fought off Rome's legions before mysteriously disappearing from history, wild tribesmen who refused to sacrifice their freedom in exchange for the benefits of civilisation. But far from the primitive warriors of popular imagination, they actually built a highly sophisticated culture in northern Scotland in the latter half of the first millennium AD, which surpassed their Anglo-Saxon rivals in many respects.

Interesting. But the main question remains: where did the Picts go? What happened to them?

A Pict paints a 1000 words?
Maybe Belgum to become painters?

If things were as they are now half the Picts were porn.
