In South Shields a persistent rumour has been going round for quite a while; the gist being that boatmen from mesopotamia were brought over by the romans to man the boats/ act as stevedores for the supply ships harbouring in Shields.


Yup. The Guardian article said they were bargemen - fascinating stuff.
