Albion biography, Albion discography
This article is about the archaic name for Great Britain.For other uses, see Albion (disambiguation).The white cliffs of Dover.This article needs additional citations for verification.Please help improve this article by adding reliable references.Albion (called Alouion by Ptolemy) is the most ancient known name of Great Britain.It is the basis of the Celtic language name for Scotland.Great Britain: "It was itself named Albion, while all the islands about which we shall soon briefly speak were called the Britanniae."European root that denotes both "white" and "mountain".The early writer (sixth century BC) whose periplus was translated by Avienus at the end of the fourth century AD (see Massaliote Periplus) does not use the name Britannia; he speaks of nesos 'Iernon kai 'Albionon: the islands of the Ierni and the Albiones.Likewise, Pytheas of Massilia (fourth century BC) speaks of Albion and 'Ierne.From the fact that there was a tribe called the Albiones on the north coast of Spain in Asturias, some scholars have placed Albion in that neighbourhood.Cultural references

ask for your help to spread the word.It's been crazy the last week so I haven't been able to thank you
and the rest of the team at Albion for an amazing sword!!!Oakeshott on Wednesday, February 6, just as you promised.With that disclaimer out of the way, I must say that I find what you and
your compatriots at Albion Armorers have accomplished to be remarkable.Albion Armorers to fulfill my dream.The Oakeshott is all that I ever wanted in a sword.Kudos to Peter Johnsson for designing The Oakeshott, and to everyone
at the Albion shop who was involved in its construction.You made the process a pleasure.This one's one of your best, guys!This is just a home run on many levels.......Would love to know more about what sword(s) you guys may have used as
a model for the prototype.It is also very different in handling than
the Kern.Pictures do not do it justice.It just feels "right" in my hands.Albion Swords will grow into the double
digits in the next few years to come.The blade is executed perfectly.Gotland and other Viking style swords of this type,
but I was wrong.The sword's heft and balance are right where they should be and despite
its rather short chunky build it is surprisingly light, fast and handy.The sword feels equally nice in one hand as it does in two, which is very
cool.Perhaps it's time that I focus on WMA, as I can feel the Castellan sending
some strong urges up my right arm.This sword was clearly designed for a very real purpose, and I wouldn't
want to be the one to let this beauty down.In the cut the Stamford moves from hammer grip to handshake grip in an
easy flow and it wants to carry my body forward in a passing step.Messer plays to see if I can make the Stamford dance.If this was 1100 years ago the skalds would have sung the Stamford's praise.Giver of Word Fame
Thanks to everyone who worked on Stamford and put it in my hand.The line decoration on the blades is really eye catching and the grinding
perfect.To make my weekend perfect it turned out that my Oakeshott
had arrived in my absence.Taking it straight home I wiped off the oil and started to drool.This has to be the best Albion yet, with the most breathtaking blade I
have ever seen on any sword.The combination of fuller and hollow grind is out of this world.The sword is of a simple design, but the proportions easily make it the
most beautiful single hander in the Albion NG line, at least in my opinion.The weapon seems to have a will of its own, a will to track with precision
time and time again and recover with agility.It is as if its gracefulness
has transferred itself to the steel.Albion Museum and NG lines included, this would
be it.Learn to make swords
