And archaeology supports this picture of merging of peoples, a picture of the merging of peoples, rather than conquest or even large-scale immigration, because the new settlements in this period show such continuity with the past, not a complete break, not the initiation of something radically new.

考古学肯定了民族的融合，多个民族相融合的图景，而不是征服或者是大规模的移民，因为这一时期新的定居表明,与过去的连续继承，而不是完全的断裂，不是完全的新的开始。
