Historian Felipe Fernández-Armesto also writes that Lowlanders are descended from various Anglo-Saxon peoples, proposing that, in contrast with "their Celtic neighbours", Lowland Scots "share a common origin, a common historic experience" with English people, which political geographer, Dennis Graham Pringle, has applied to both Lowland Scots and Ulster Scots people. A scholar of Scottish history, Colin Kidd suggests that emigrating Flemish people, another Germanic ethnic group, also significantly contributed to the ancestry of Lowlanders via the Anglo-Norman resettlement of Scotland during the Davidian Revolution.
