"Latin did not have a letter -j-. The letter -j- for consonantal was first proposed in the mid-15th century and introduced in the 16th century. Modern editions of Latin texts"

Yes, I read about this, and then added the last paragraph - taken from somewhere else than the text above, if I remember right - to the quote just as an afterthought, maybe to prove that the North European j has prestigious roots.

(I had to change your text, because I got an error message: banned HTML tag not allowed: < j >)
