I guess that's the recreational hobby, 'jobs,' of the wealthy? Might they actually be tourists engaging in a more intellectual exploration of the world where as average tourists go to party and then chilax on the beach? Military and English teaching got me abroad with 1 month and sometimes more a year off to just fly away. International travel is usually super cheap doing, 'backpacking,' where you stay in hostels, guesthouses, and use small local businesses for food and services.

Romans reported the Picts called themselves "Kaldis" or "Kaltis". When the Picts became Christians, they adopted the Roman term "Pict". The term Picts means "painted people" in Latin. The first to record the Picts existence in Alba were sea-faring Greek merchants, who called them "Albiones" (pale-skinned ones). They painted their bodies blue for battle, as was the ancient custom of the Celts. From historical records, Picts had red hair that was either close shaved or left uncut, and were known for their long beard. The Picts are recorded to have reached Scotland by the first millennium BC, and chose the best areas for themselves. They absorbed the earlier tribesmen who were known as Orcades and soon dominated the northern half of Scotland. Picts held the territory north of the Firth of Forth in Scotland and mysteriously disappeared from written history around 900 AD.

@@uekiguy5886 Good question. According to Wikipedia, in the 1st century BC, Julius Caesar reported that the people known to the Romans as Gauls called themselves Celts, which suggests that even if the name Keltoi was bestowed by the Greeks, it had been adopted to some extent as a collective name by the Celtic tribes of Gaul. France was originally called Gaul by the Romans who gave the name to the entire area where the Celtics lived. This was at the time of Julius Caesar's conquest of the area in 51-58 BC. Gaul actually covered a huge land area including France, but also Belgium, Luxembourg and parts of the Netherlands, Switzerland and Germany. The Gaul area stretched from the River Rhine and the Alps, the Mediterranean Sea (which the Romans called Mare Nostrum), the Pyrenees to the south and the Atlantic Ocean in the north and west.

The term Pict is derived from the Latin 'pictii', meaning 'painted ones' as a description of their tattood and painted bodies. The Picts ultimately adopted this monicker in the latter part of their existence as a distinct culture/people but we do not know what they called themselves pre-Roman contact. Perhaps one day we shall find their Rosetta Stone and decipher their carvings.

Sort of. The Gaels claimed it was a peaceful merger where the picts lost all their language and customs and Columba convinced them to become Christians. It's more likely the Gaels conquered them after the Picts became too weak fighting the Angles and Vikings. The Scots were a combination of Gaels/Picts/Britons/Flemish/Angles and later Normans. Although the Flemish/Norman influence in Scotland is very different to England/Wales/Ireland. Scotland was never conquered by the Normans. Some of them moved here after William the Conqueror invaded Angleland/England. Some of the great names is Scottish history like the Bruce has family descended from the royal line of Charlemagne. Despite the Norman/English expansion efforts they were unable to conquer Scotland just like the Vikings/Romans etc. It's not a place easy to conquer due to the terrain and tribal nature of the people.

Legend tells of a Mighty Giant Warrior King armed with a lightening rod? Whilst covered up history tells of a fiery comet torching everything in its path.
