There were Phoenicians coming to Cornwall to buy tin during the Bronze Age [ circa 2100 BC to 70 BC ]. This was taught in school history. The Phoenicians came from Phoenicia, which is the Lebanon and Syria so it is easy to surmise that Jews, being traders were very much part of it. Indeed Anthony Ludovici in The Jews and the Jews in England Part III tells us that they left traces behind. Cornish place names like Marazion [ Bitterness of Zion ] and Market Jew are examples which are confirmed by http://www.sacred-texts.com/neu/eng/prwe/prwe190.htm. The Wikipedia [ see Marazion ] disagrees. Jewish names once were common there and Cornishmen through and through sometimes have a cast of countenance that suggests Jewish or Mediterranean blood. There were also men of the Spanish Armada who never went back but settled instead but that was later.
The Wikipedia claims that:-. QUOTE
There is no evidence of Jews residing in England before the Norman Conquest; all permanent Jewish residents came from Normandy and other areas of northern France. The Norman Jews were primarily moneylenders........... The few references in the Anglo-Saxon laws of the Roman Catholic Church about Jews either relate to Jewish practices about Easter or apply to passing visitors, such as the Gallo-Roman Jews, slave-traders who imported English slaves to the Roman market.
UNQUOTE
It also claims that Anthony Ludovici was very Anti-Semitic without giving any reason to believe them. [ The National Vanguard gives a very different view. ] Mr. Ludovici did not make the point that the Jews were buying and selling English slaves but it seems entirely likely. They are doing the same to this day, only it is white slaving from the Russian empire into Israel.
Once the Bronze Age [ circa 2100 BC to 70 BC ] was finished and replaced by the Iron Age [ 12th Century BC onward ] tin trading from the Mediterranean to Cornwall would have finished. There is iron to be found in many places apart from England. It makes better tools. So does steel which came after iron. The next major contact, slaving apart, was the Norman Conquest perpetrated by William the Conqueror, the Duke of Normandy.
