Some time later, the East Angles were under attack from the Mercian king Penda, a battle which can be roughly dated as between c.635 and 645, and in which both Sigeberht and Ecgric were killed (see entry on c.635?645).
The East Angles were likely to harbour Penda's enemies because he had killed two of their kings, Sigeberht and Ecgberht, in a battle of c.635?645; he would go on to kill Anna of the East Angles in 654.
This Sigiberht "the Small" presumably succeeded to the East Anglian kingdom some time after the deaths of the three sons of Sæberht in about 616; if there were other intervening kings, their names have not survived.

 Full text of AFTER THE FLOOD — THE EARLY POST-FLOOD HISTORY OF EUROPE, by Bill Cooper
I had determined at the very beginning that the test was to be one of unreasonable severity, so even the astonishing level of vindication so far achieved did not fully satisfy the requirements of the test.
Such claims of fraud will be examined in detail, particularly with regard to the records that the early Britons have left us and which are omitted in their entirety from modern history books, the media and the classroom.
Yet perhaps the reader is unaware of the sheer scale of this omission, for the records of the early Britons, and that's not counting the Irish Celtic, Saxon and continental records which we shall also be examining, cover not just a particular phase of history, but span more than two thousand years of it.

 Introduction to the Old English poem called BEOWULF
In sum, the historical allusions in the poem, with the exception of that of Hygelac, seem largely insufficient as a basis for any sound dating of the text.
Fulk's important work (1992), however, shows that there is a large number of Anglian morphological characteristics, which are mainly absent from poetry known to origin in the south, which is found in poems usually thought to be Anglian--and in Beowulf.
Whatever the date of the poem, the language favours an Anglian provenance, and the evidence slightly favours an origin in the Midlands--in Mercia or East Anglia (see Sam Newton 1993 on the latter)--than Northumbria, despite an early academic preference for a Northumbrian origin.

Danube] waters." Thus at the time Jordanus was writing, the Gepidae had succeeded in settling the ancient Dacia, Upper Moesia, on the eastern bank of the Tisza, a river that winds through the plains of Hungary to empty into the Danube (Jordanes, v.33; xxii.113).
On the western and northern side it was surrounded by an enormous sea (the Atlantic), but in the east there was a land bridge (Lappland) which cut of the sea in the east forming the German Sea (the Baltic Sea).

OE Scucc survives in East Anglia as the name (Old) Shuck or Shock applied to a supernatural creature sometimes classified with 'Black Dogs' (see Brown)--of the 'Barguest' variety, of which Brown says '[it is] a shapeless monster struggling to present itself in a variety of images…a subconscious, partly chthonic entity' (189).
Scinn has not survived in any dialect that I am aware of at present (though it would not be surprising to discover it); if it has/had, it would denote a creature called a 'Shine', which would be a sort of wraith or will-'o-wisp.
