	SAXON PEOPLE FACTS AND INFORMATION (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		The label "Saxons" was generally applied to German settlers who migrated during the 13th_century to south-eastern Transylvania in present-day Romania, where their descendants numbered a quarter of a million in the early decades of the 20th_century.
		Saxon "pirates" had been harrassing the eastern and southern shores of Britannia for centuries before - prompting the construction of a string of coastal forts called the Saxon_Shore and many Saxons and other folk had been permitted to settle in these areas as farmers long before the end of Roman rule in Britannia.
		The Saxons gave their names to the kingdoms of Essex, Sussex and Wessex (the lands respectively of the East_Saxons, South_Saxons and West_Saxons), which with the shorter-lived Middlesex eventually became part of the kingdom of England.

	Saxon life in South Essex, UK.
		Saxon settlement evidence is particularly prolific in south Essex.

	Anglo-Saxons.net : Timeline: 450-550
		Saxon pirates may have been raiding the shores of Britain already by 365; in 367 there was a Roman military officer in charge of a series of fortresses along the south-eastern coast, and by the end of the century the coast itself was called the Saxon Shore.
		While there are details here, they cannot be accepted as reliable: since the Saxons would have been illiterate from the invasions in the 5th century until their conversion in the 7th century, the dates and details are at best a matter of traditions and later guesswork.
		There is no surviving royal genealogy for the South Saxons, and beyond a brief mention of a fight between Ceolwulf of Wessex and the South Saxons in 607 we know nothing of their fortune until their re-emergence into narrative history in the 660s (see entry on 661).

		The south and eastern seaboards of Britannia were collectively known as "the Saxon Shore" and several large forts were built to defend it.
		In 491, a Saxon army led by Aelle landed on the south coast west of Kent and besieged Anderida.
		For a while the ruined castle was known by the Saxons as Andredceaster and the Weald of southern England which stretched 120 miles from Anderida to Dorset was named Andredsweald or the Forest of Andred.

	The Anglo-Saxons
		The Saxons began to appear as sea-borne raiders in the Third Century, along with the Franks.
		The Saxons, under their principal warlord, Aelle, were decisively defeated at the Battle of Mount Badon, probably somewhere in Somerset, near the end of the Fifth Century, and their expansion was halted for a good half-century.
		At its greatest extent it was bounded by the Humber in the north, the Thames in the south, the Fens in the east and the Welsh border in the West.

	British Kingdoms of the South
		Such kingdoms seem to have emerged in the south too, but because the Anglian and Saxon invaders were already advancing west between AD 477-c.496 and again more strongly from around 540, they were much more short-lived and details of their existence, let alone their rulers and borders, are far more scarce.
		The British must have recovered, however, because the West Saxons set great store by the fact that the final kings of the three cities, all ruling in 577, were killed fighting them at the Battle of Dyrham (Gloucestershire), and the territory was taken by them and the Hwicce.
		On the other hand, the Saxons to the south were actively hostile, and the Historia Brittonum describes how, at "...Hengist's death, Octha his son went from the northern part of Britain to the kingdom of Kent".

	Kingdoms of the Anglo-Saxons - Sussex
		These Saxons then settled around the area of Selsey Bill (between Kent and Portsmouth on the south coast), isolated by The Weald from the British kingdoms that still operated to the north (although only for a short time, as the Saxons of the Suther-Ge were already making inroads along the Thames).
		The South Saxons were probably major players in the defeat of Mons Badonicus (c.496) and may have lost their kingdom, as no mention is made of it and no Saxon burials are found there for another century.
		Very little is known of the South Saxons, especially between Aelle's death in or around 514 and the kingdom's re-emergence in 661.

	Saxon Hele Bay, Ilfracombe, north Devon (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		Its south wall would have been in line with the nave arcading, and its ground storey forming a transept directly off from the nave, which is the customary plan of 14th century North Devon churches having similarly placed towers.
		The set-back before referred to is not to be seen on the south side owing to the fact that this side was thinned down, when the large ground storey or transept arch was built, to the extent of the projection of the set-back.
		The Saxons introduced it for their larger settlements, because it is what they were used to, but later generations learnt that small fields surrounded by banks and hedges were more suited to the environment.

	Regia Anglorum - The Saxons
		The evolution of Saxon and then Anglo-Saxon Britain and the demise of the British peoples is almost all due to a fairly unknown leader of only half of the Roman empire called 'Honorius'.
		The Saxons from northern Germany and Angles from the border regions of Germany and Denmark, may have formed the majority of the migrants.
		One line of thought is that the graves found in early Saxon cemeteries with no grave goods may in fact be the remains of Britons who lived along side 'Anglo-Saxons', and the lack of finds represents the differing burial customs of a people who had a Christian framework.

		What is certain is that the invasion did indeed involve Angles, Saxons and Jutes, and that the Jutes settled on the Isle of Wight before the majority of the Anglo-Saxon invasion had started.
		It is believed that his force of Saxons was allied with the Jutes who settled on the Island, and that for a time Cerdic and his nephews Stuf and Wihtgar ruled the Island's Jute population.
		Essentially, the Isle of Wight was recaptured from the Kingdom of the South Saxons and became part of the kingdom of the West Saxons.

	Anglo-Saxons.net : Edward the Elder
		Edward kept the English army stationed on the south side of the Severn estuary, and it was just as well because the Vikings twice broke their oaths and stole ashore.
		The "main" version in the 910s is very much a West Saxon version, and records only Edward's achievements, not describing any of Æthelflæd's vital fortress-building against the Five Boroughs or the Norse Vikings or the Welsh, simply noting her death.
		Edward, having just conquered the Danes south of the Humber, is unlikely to have worried about the unrest of the English Mercians, and it is plausible that the rearrangement of the Mercian shires closely followed Edward's assertion of direct control over Mercia in 918.

		According to Bede, AEthelwald, king of Sussex, had been previously baptized in Mercia at the suggestion of Wulfhere, who presented him with the Isle of Wight and the district about the Meon.
