In other words, Scaldis is a Germanic name. Other than that,

of Celtic settlement.
============ ========= ==A.F :I disagree with this point.If you look at Norse and Frankish settlements in France,they are usually ending with French -court and -ville (of Latin origin).If we were to discard all these names as proofing nothing about Norse and Frankish settlements, there would be hardly anything left to say.I consider that hybrids words and words that display non LAtin word-order are data to be taken into account.The Germanic word order in Neu-ville (new town) is hold to prove Germanic Settlements.Most Neu-ville are in the Northand Ville-neuve in the South.the same reasoning applies to words like Templeuve : templo-vi-um (Temple-street)============ ========= =====

These are the typical Celtic name elements which Kuhn used to
determine Celtic settlement:
"
Es sind die Namenwörter briga "Berg" (mit briwa "Brücke", das von ihm
oft nicht zu scheiden ist), nant = "Tal" und vern = "Erle" ..., die
Namen Novientum/Noviantum und Condate "Zusammenfluß " samt Du:num
"Burg" (nicht in Zusammensetzungen ...) sowie die auf oialum/=oilum
"============ ========= ========= ==
This is not one of them, and Balo- is not necessarily Celtic.A.FIt can be Gaulish.And this is already much.============ ========= ========= ========= ===

> Was the capital of the Morini.
But is this a typical Celtic name?
============ ========= ========= ========= ==
A.FWhat else can it be ?============ ========= ========= =========

Do you have any old forms of that?
============ ========= ========= ========= ====NoI know that there used to be a leprosery in this placein the XIII centurybut I don't have references.

Is bebros proof of Celtic settlement?============ ========= ========= ========= =====A.F :It usually is taken to be Celtic.FRance is covered with bebr- place-names.============ ========= ========= ========
3 - 4 cases of briva/briga and -oilum/-oialum. Hardly ein breiteres
Vorkommen.
I've uploaded Kuhn's maps of the relevant Celtic toponyms to the files
in the directory 'Kuhn maps'.============ ========= ========= ========= ======Thank you for the maps.A general remark is that most of present-day Netherlands(and some parts of France and Belgie)that is white on the maps used to be sea-water.I think a more objective assessment would require to indicatethe coast-line at the time considered.This is the kind of bias that I dislike.this white area is not Celtic-less land : it is not dry land at all.this artificially pushes Celtic typonyms to the south.Condate map :one more obvious case : Condette : 15km from Boulogne.ialos :there are at least 6 known casesI can see only three.============ ====Which other "Celtic" markers would you accept ?- rînos : running water- rodanos : flowing water- dan- : valley- bebro : beaver- bala : clear-water- dob : dark-water- nemeto : sacred place- odna : water- broga : bush- bag : beech- vabero : small river- camero : river meander============ ========= ========= =========
