This stock at one tinie divided. One lot went west, colonised ' Spain, and settled in France. Some went to Ireland and Scotland, and were the ancestors of the British race. Another! biuun-.h migrated to Polynesia, where the climatic conditions and other influences plavecl their part in making the difference between the two peoples.
