	Heroic Age - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Heroic Age was the period of Greek mythological history that lay between the purely divine events of the Theogony and Titanomachy and the advent of historical time after the Trojan War.
		It was demarcated as one of the five Ages of Man by Hesiod.
		The Greek heroes can be grouped into an approximate chronology, based on the great meet-up events of the Argonautic expedition and the Trojan War.

	The Heroic Age: Athelstan of England
		The exultation that caused the Chronicler literally to break into song with that annal in the midst of an otherwise dry listing of consecrations and deaths is symptomatic of the contemporary fame the warrior king Athelstan enjoyed, which made him the focus of tenth- to twelfth-century lore and legend.
		In the tenth century, the new ethos of Christian heroism was employed to great effect by the West Saxon kings in their creation of a unified kingdom of England.
		But in the same age, even in defeat, Byrhtnoth, a non-royal warrior of the nobility, did gain such renown as a saint and martyr [52].
