As far as I know the British Isles (a long time ago) was occupated by the Angles, the Saxons and the Jutes. But there is a Jutland somewhere in Scandinavia. What I don't know is whether the Jutes were one of the ancient people of Britain moving up to Scandinavia or the Jutes are of Scandinavian origin and they came to settle in Britain with the Viking invaders? You may think this a terribly stupid question but I'm a non native speaker, English major univ student and I can rely on only what I've been taught in my British History and Civilization class a long time ago. Anyway, thanks for your help!
