Nice. I’ve been interested in Wieringen recently as the location of the Toletmark [page 60 manuscript]. Indeed, I wonder if that market on the Flee Lake is where we get the word “flea market “!!

Hi, I used to live in Wieringewerf when I was very young.
I just want to make a remark about the germanic tribe.
I think that the word German is an historic mistake,
they were called Hermanic. Des Herres mannen which mean the people of God.
The Spanish and Romans were the earliest history writers. Herman is German in Spanish and I think something went wrong in the translations. The biggest statue in Germany is of Hermann Der Gross kämpfer.
Herman the great fighter.

It is interesting to look/search in that line.
