The Anglo- Saxons 449A.D. – 1066 A.D.

Anglo-Saxons 449- Angles and Saxons from Germany and Jutes from Denmark crossed the North Sea. They drove out the Britons and settled in Britain.

Anglo-Saxons The language of the Anglo-Saxons became the dominant language in the land known as Enga land, or England.

Anglo-Saxons The Anglo-Saxons drove out the native Celts into Wales. The Celtic culture and language can still be found there today. Heroic Celtic leader- Arthur- Welsh chieftain who developed in legend.

Anglo-Saxons Alfred the Great (reigned from )- he helped to create a true “nation” out of England when he led the Anglo Saxons against the invading Danes and created a unified nation. (before, the Anglo-Saxons had been divided into several independent principalities, each with its own leader.) Alfred the Great- introduced Christianity to the Anglo-Saxons.

Anglo-Saxons and Christianity Christianity provided a common faith and common system of morality and right and conduct. Under Christianity and Alfred, Anglo- Saxons fought to protect their people, their culture, and their church from the ravages of the Danes. In the end, both the Anglo-Saxons and the Danes were defeated in 1066 by William, duke of Normandy and his invading forces of Normans from northwestern France.

Anglo-Saxon Life Kings were buried with their treasures Men were buried with their swords and tools. Women were buried with their sewing tools and clothing… Law and order- were the responsibility of the leader.

Anglo-Saxon Life Continued Fame and success, even survival, were gained only through loyalty to the leader, especially during war. Success was measured in gifts from the leader. Communal Hall- offered shelter and a place for council meetings. Also offered a place for storytellers and their audience. Bards- skilled storytellers who often sang of gods and hereos.

Anglo-Saxon Religion Animism- The belief in the existence of individual spirits that inhabit natural objects and phenoma.

Anglo-Saxon Literature Contains many works in elegiac (mournful) form. Was often sung by bards.
