How did the Germanic tribes and peoples come to outperform the Celtic ones? I mean in terms of development, civilisation, settling of land etc

They were used to having the Romans for protection and when they left they couldn't defend themselves against the Picts and Gaels.

Oh, I mean in general just using Saxon culture as example
>>
>>3015109
They relied on the same Saxons for protection, and then when the Roman administration collapsed, the Saxons just carved their own kingdoms from the power vacuum. The Saxons had been there for centuries.
>>
>>3015323

Sure in the same way Black Africans were in Roman Britain for centuries.

I think it makes a pretty big difference that there wasn't a single Germanic town there before they started coming by the boatloads.

Celtics were too cucked by their women, both literally and figuratively. Every society that becomes mentally feminized and where woman reaches equal status of a man, will inevitably get conquered.

Not in any way Celtic

Celtic and at least Italic/Germanic and maybe Slavic were still the same thing when it was constructed.
>>
>>3015415
And how did they become different then?
>>
>>3015423

I'm not going to explain the core basics of linguistics and I wouldn't do a very good job at it anyway. All that you need to know is that Stonehenge predates Indo-European languages by many centuries. When the construction began the people speaking the dialect which would lead to Italo-Celtic were living no further west than Hungary.

Minoans lasted for more than a full millenia before a volcano decided to fuck them up, and from what i hear, women led a very important role on their society if not more important than men.

Your point is moot.

Celts were less of a warrior society, and more culturally inclined to things like art, song, ritual, mysticism and tradition, whereas Germanic societies were more centered around the physical state, the usefulness of a thousand spears, as opposed to the beauty of one master-crafted, bejeweled, golden spear. They were also alot more adventurous than Celts, who had no problem staying perfectly put in the same pleasant enclave their ancestors lived in, and were probably very surprised when Romans came en masse as a brutal machine of state, money and man-power, just like they were probably dumbfounded when Saxons, Jutes, Angles, Frisians and so forth came, and when Danish Vikings came, etc. etc.

The point being, that people generally placed a heavier emphasis on what something does, while the other was more interested in how something is.

I'm speaking specifically about the Celtic peoples of Briton and Ireland, but the point stands for the Gallic or Iberian Celtic peoples as well, in that a society that concerned itself more with art, song, dance, belief, with combat as a ritual, with weaponry as a work of art, with state as a cultural body, was eventually overtaken by those societies that concerned themselves with trade, exploration, politics, pragmatism, the mobilization of men for material purposes, combat as a science, and weaponry as a tool.

This is really dumb. Also why mention King Arthur? he was a Christian Romano-Briton in the legend, and probably never existed at all. Lancelot is completely fictional and made up by Chretian De Troyes for his Romances
>>
>>3015333
In what we know, Germanic women have been far more "open" to foreign invaders than Britons were to Romans, or Irish were to English, etc. etc.
>>
>>3017799
Lol no

Their kings had names like Deudorix and Betorix, and Sicambri itself is a Celtic name.
>>
>>3019496
PIE *eu became *ou in Proto-Celtic

Deudorix sounds like a possible Latin rendering of Proto-Germanic *þeudoriks
>>
>>3019532
Nice try but the suffix "reik" is rendered "ric" in Latin as for þeudoriks it is attested as Theodoric

The Britons spoke a Gallo-Roman language different to the Welsh language which survived on the edges of society.

The Saxons spoke a Germanic language, when they became the rulers of most of Britain, the Britons then started to adopt Germanic words in order to communicate with the rulers.

This exact process occurred again when the Saxons were defeated by the French speaking Normans. Now the Britons started to use French words to speak to their new rulers. The Old English and Middle English are not the same languages.

Middle English is

> Brythonic substrate
> Latin

> Brythonic and Latin substrate
> German

> Brythonic, Latin, and German substrate
> French


Anyone who disagrees is a Protestant Degenerate.

The Romans launched theiur invasion from Germania, Germans first came to Britain with the Romans, Jewish history tells you that Germans destroyed the Empire at the end, implying that Germans never existed in the Empire, but this is false, Germans were influential at the inception of the Empire.

Read your own link

It is written that it is borrowed from Celtic and it distinguish between the genuine "rix" and germanic bastardization "riks"
>>
>>3019622
>borrowed from Celtic

And? Is anyone whose named John a Hebrew? The first part of the name Deud-/Theud is Germanic, meaning people. Deuderix/Theuderiks = ruler of the people.

>genuine "rix" and germanic bastardization "riks"

The name is reported by a Roman chronicler and those forms basically sound the same.
>>
>>3015333
I knew instantly when I saw the thread that someone was going to post that.
>>
>>3019637
>Deuderix/Theuderiks = ruler of the people

Rix is celtic, it would be Deudoriks/Deudoric if it was a Germanic name

And you forgot Beto-rix which mean Eternal/Everlasting King in Gaulish
>>
>>3019644

We know these names from Strabo (not a Roman, but a Greek, my bad). -ix and -iks basically sound the same, so it's not surprising he wrote it down as ξ.

>And you forgot Beto-rix

It's Baitorix though

>which mean Eternal/Everlasting King in Gaulish

Though you have any source for the meaning of that name?
>>
>>3019692
rix mean king in Gaulish

And "beto" is attested as "memento BETO to diuo" "(ALWAYS remember your god) in Life of Saint Symphorien
>>
>>3019701
> "memento BETO to diuo" "(ALWAYS remember your god) in Life of Saint Symphorien

https://vroegemiddeleeuwen.weblog.leidenuniv.nl/2013/05/01/in-voce-gallica/

You quoted the sentence wrong, and mentobeto is interpreteted as a verb meaning "remember".
>>
>>3015533
i'd say that is probably true for northern gaul but in the south where all those yummy mediterranean ports were, there was still a heavy military culture. weren't the gaulo-roman breakaway kingdoms/duchies of aquitaine and gascon still resisting against frankish intrusion up until the time of otto I's coronation as hre?

If you read the link I posted here >>3019745, that the original sentence was "Nate, nate, mentobe(to) to deuo", meaning "Son, son, remember your god". What you posted is a later corruption.

Either way, you neither made a case for a translation as "always, eternal" nor for a connection between Baito- and (mento)beto.

It's quite impressive though how you find the most obscure stuff to support your pseudo-arguments.
