Is the any recent literature on the credibility of the Pictish kinglists?Reconsideration?email_work_card=view-paper
I saw mentionings of books and papers that focus on individual persons that might or might not be linked to historical persons, but not on a more scholarly work.
The last year or so I came across several papers on Academia that seriously reconstruct a parallel history that is difficult to accept for anyone thinking reasonable, for instance https://www.academia.edu/62735981/The_Legendary_Kings_of_the_Picts_a_
There are websites on Wikipedia on the subject but not with a disclaimer "beware fiction".

Heather Rose Jones and Tangwystyl verch Morgant Glasvryn
one ends up with (women sience-fiction and) fantasy and heraldry that take you to a different spectrum.
As the internet is a playground for anyone with or without knowledge I wonder if there is a scholarly work that deals with the subject in-depth.

Hans VogelsHeather Rose Jones has a PhD in linguistics and studied medieval Welsh. She's good on names, but she isn't a historian of the Picts.

Thank you Peter,
This is a indeed a worthwhile paper.
Given the complexity of even trying to interpretate and reconstruct the 'historical period'
everything on the (here casually mentioned) prehistoric period looks to me highly speculative.

But meanwhile I noticed that James E Fraser wrote in 2011 a paper titled: From ancient Scythia to The Problem of the Picts.
The paper probably deals with the fantasy part that precedes the Pictish Kinglists.
It's not on Academia and I asked James Fraser if he cared to upload it to Academia.
