Presentation transcript:

Angles, the Saxons, and the Jutes The Romans originally invaded Great Britain in 43 AD after the Britons supported the Gauls in their fight against the Romans. In 410 the Romans left the area and the Angles, Saxons, and Jutes jumped at the chance to invade the newly abandoned island They ruled most of the country but never conquered a select few areas of the country. The Angles, the Saxons, and the Jutes ruled for another 500 years, roughly.

The Anglo-Saxon Heptarchy By 600, the Angles, the Saxons, and the Jutes have separated the land into seven different kingdoms with seven different kings. Mercia is considered the most powerful of the seven kingdoms. Villages were small with no more than a few hundred civilians in an area. They were located in areas with plenty of resources for people to live off of. At first, villages were named after the rulers of the areas but eventually the names represented different landmarks in the general area of the town.

Pagan vs. Christian In the beginning the Anglo-Saxons were pagans. They worshipped pagan gods and even named some of the days of the weeks after certain gods. They also celebrated Pagan holidays that revolved around gods who represented different parts of life: family, horticulture, love, healing, metal work, weather…etc. In 596 the Catholic Pope sent Augustine along with 40 other monks to the island of Britain to convert the Pagans to Christianity.

Days of the Week Monandaeg (Moon’s Day) Tiwesdaeg (Tiw’s day -Scandinavian sky god) Wodnesdaeg (Woden’s day – chief god) Dunresdaeg (Thor’s Day- god of thunder) Frigedaeg (Freyja’s Day-Woden’s wife) Saeternsdaeg ( Saturn’s Day- Roman God) Sunnandaeg (Sun’s Day-Day of the Sun) *Knowing the days of the week, was Augustine Successful in converting the Anglo-Saxons?

Augustine of Canterbury Augustine was originally intimidated by the Anglo- Saxons. He first traveled to Kent where the King (King Ethelbert) allowed them to settle in Canerbury. King Ethelbert was a Pagan king married to a Christian wife. Within a year of Augustine’s stay, Ethelbert was baptized. Augustine was relatively successful as a missionary but it was because of his willingness to compromise.
