Another great video but I have some questions. Firstly, you didn’t give an approximate date for East Anglian settlement nor its formation as a kingdom so can you let us know when those happened? Also, why are your sources so old (1950s and 1980s)? Shouldn’t there be more updates sources, archeological findings, etc about this? You can also look into a collab or getting sources from the RUclips channels History with Hilbert (He’s in the ASNAC programme) and History Time.
@@overdose8329 @Overdose Sure. The sources used were primarily selected as they were both available (using university resources), and when compared with other sources offered much of the same and valid information. The age of the sources doesn't negate their accuracy or validity, and while of course we are open and searching for better sources with more information, the ones used provided the information required for the depth of investigation we needed to conduct for this video. While of course newer sources may offer further insight, the insights they do offer didn't seem to offer too much with regard to the narrative we told
Of course though, realities do affect just which sources we have available. Sadly not every source is available for whatever reason, yet the ones we used I personally feel offered enough information and, given what was read and compared with the other background reading we conducted, seemed wholly acceptable.
I would love to know where you found the landowner register. History and genetics are subjects that I research a lot & no matter how well you Google sometimes you are always at the mercy of an algorithm. Finding information in today's world is getting harder and harder because it should be posted online for everyone to see but it is constantly being blocked somehow or censored. Anytime I can find a reliable source for firsthand information I jump at that chance
@@calum5975good explanation. And love that name Wuffa.
Funny how people comment that Britain now has a German monarch, but don’t say much how they used to have a French one. They’ve just returned to their roots.
Mhm. Not only that but the current Monarch isn't even that German. Useful Charts broke down the ancestry of the British Monarchy. (Although given Prince Phillip belonged to a German noble house, I suppose Charles will be much more German than the Queen was)
Perhaps because the Normans didn’t even think of themselves as French?
Huh?
@@kevin6293Correct, but more germanic than every monarch before the Hanoverians and their descendents took over England/Britain in the 18th century from the norman-scottish Stuarts
William III?
One of the most underrated history channels on the platform. Hoping that the algorithm takes more people here
Thank you so much for those words!! :') Fingers crossed!
Where is it rated? I'd like to see how it compares to others. Is it even in the top 10?
Great video! Anglo-Saxon history is a very interesting time period
Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed it!!
It's interesting, because watching History with Hilbert a few years ago. Apparently, British universities were doing away with any history courses studying Anglo-Saxon events, because it was a misleading and racist term.
A very interesting time to me! At school we were told about the Romans invading southern Britain in the First Century AD and then the Norman invasion in the Eleventh Century AD. That millennium in between was written off as just the Dark Ages and was in fact two very interesting eras, Roman Britain and then Pre-Conquest Britain. This channel is educating us about Pre-Conquest Britain.
This is a great video on Anglo-Saxon history, which is an over-looked and underrated part of history.
Seriously the early middle ages are underrated and underappreciated
Know History liking your comment that is now 2 months old gives me hope
I am so glad these amazing history channels are appearing in my recommended
Thank you! :D
Next video when?
"... there was no Vortigern" is a huge, highly contested POV
Great video! I had heard or learned somewhere that the word "sheriff" is from the Arabic "sharif" and it was borrowed by English speakers during the Crusades. Interesting to hear about "shire reeve" (and the internet seems to support that as the basis for the word "sheriff"). Just goes to show that we cannot always rely on things we heard or learned in the past and must always be open to new information.
@78cunobelin -The word Sheriff is from the English word 'Shire Reive' which predates the crusades.
The Arabs didn't invent the word 'Shire' but the Persian/Hindi word 'Shahir' is very close. Shahir = City.
Hebrew and Syrian for City is Ir (Iraq) (Iran) sounds like 'eer'.
Maybe Shahir comes from Shah ir.
(Royal City)
Still working on it
The Arabic word Sharif is from the Hebrew word Seraph which means burning snake.
Took me years to find this out.
The similarity of the names is a bummer
@@joedee1863 well, it is all proto-indo-european so perhaps it is all the same ;)
@@78cunobelin - it's fascinating stuff. I like languages and keep stumbling over words thinking ''how did that get there ?"
I knew the word for " keep quiet " in ancient Hebrew was HUSH !
But just the other day I find out the word for 'dumb' is DUMA. [Isaiah 4:6] נִדְמ֥וּ n damu.
@@78cunobelin - except for Semitic languages,
I personally think the Bernicians were descendants of the Frisians, explaining a extremely early Roman Period settlement as Frisian mercenaries were known to live in the region by Rome. Romans left behind a Brythonic kingdom who mingled with the Frisic cultures.
Interesting. I think this theory is probably also supported linguistically
I wish the Celtic names of Wessex' supposed founders was mentioned. A Celtic elite adopting Germanic customs is an interesting tale indeed.
perhaps the Celtic names were adopted, just as Norman names were adopted after the Norman conquest.
@@puskascat Wessex wasn't conquered by Celts though.
@@RyanMatthewCampbell I don't agree, since there was clearly human settlement in that area before the Celts came to Britain. Even in Ireland there are pre-Celtic place names that have survived to the present.
@@seaghanobuadhaigh8240 huh? What does that have to do with the Kingdom of Wessex' founders have Celtic personal names? Wessex was an Anglo-Saxon Kingdom, not Celtic or pre-Celtic.
Missed a golden opportunity to describe the East Anglian regions of Suffolk and Norfolk. AKA south folks and north folks.
Using these for a subject I have at university (anglo-saxon history and culture) as a way to better understand and remember! Loved all your videos so far! Hoping these will continue! Thank you for making these! :)
Nice Crusaders Kings 3 love the game.
Great find in my feed. Your channel has tons of potential and keep up the great content!
Well done Know History. It would be great if you did the other cultural perspectives in the same timeline in Britannia.
An excellent idea. Sadly our knowledge on such topics is considerably less, but I'm sure we can start research into it. Perhaps the Kingdoms of early Medieval Wales.
Many historians reckon this Anglo-Saxon thing was largely made up by monks, isolated in their abbeys.
For instance, an Anglo-Saxon burial ground near Updown, in Kent, was found to contain the grave of a African descended child.
See: Daily Mail Updown.
@@johnpatrick5307 we wuz angelo saxenz
@johnpatrick5307 except the "Anglo-saxon" thing has been proven with genetics.
Waiting for the next video, as explained at the end of the video! Great work!
Cerdic, is a Briton name, so while Cerdic may have been an invader, I think it is more likely that Cerdic hired Saxons to conquer a swathe of land in exchange for marrying into the Saxon tribal system as a chief, using the Old Saxon language instead of British Latin or Old Brytonnic. Cerdic could also be a mistranslations of the Briton name, "Caradog" as Cerdic could have been pronounced as Kerdig.
DNA evidence continues to demonstrate that, contrary to old concepts of ethnic cleansing, Celtic and Germanic peoples merged pretty early on to begin to create an English culture and ethnicity. Many other cultures have adopted the language of other cultures (the Irish, Welsh, and Scots as a pretty notable example!) and these kinds of transitions frequently take a good length of time. On top of this, it probably didn’t hurt when Augustine of Canterbury converted Aethelberht to Christianity, thereby allowing Christian concepts to be, more or less, disseminated by way of the English language and thoroughly endorsed by the Vatican. A little while later the Synod of Whitby more completely aligned the Church in eastern England with Rome. Consequently, the Celtic Church (and languages?) in the rest of England was on the ‘wrong’ side of favor and, ultimately, history. From that point onward, the hegemony of the English language became inevitable in the British Isles.
AD>CE
Brilliant analysis and thank you so much it's so useful❤
This channel is so underrated.
Outstanding video, an oral history at its best.
The star on your map at 3:46-3:51 and marked "Ebbsfleet", which you say is near where Ramsgate is now, is near enough to where Ramsgate is now . . . but Ebbsfleet is 50 miles west, quite a long way up the Thames. So where did they land?
Another fantastic video!
Nice ive watched 3 of these anglo saxon vids and i think youve done a good job have a sub
I think the mark of really good short-form history content on RUclips is being able to be both concise and informative, as well as being clear about what is merely conjecture and what is backed up by compelling evidence. You seem to have mastered all those skills and this is a great video.
Of course, there's always a point for debate when it comes to this period of history (or any period for that matter) and I would have to take issue with the suggestion here that Augustine "reintroduced" Christianity to Britain and that the Anglo-Saxons were "strictly pagan" before his mission. Whilst there may not have been any 'officially' Christian Anglo-Saxon territories or rulers, there were certainly Anglo-Saxon Christians prior to Augustine, having been converted by Irish missionaries. Indeed, it was partly the spread of 'Celtic' Christianity from Ireland that prompted Rome to dispatch Augustine in the first place.
Otherwise, thank you for this great content. I've just subscribed and can't wait to get stuck in to more of your videos.
Grammar note: I have always heard Cerdic pronounced with a hard C, like Celtic. Kerdic, then.
I am not arguing, nor saying Serdic is an incorrect pronunciation. I just wanted to point out the soft C tradition in English is very young for how dominant it is. There are lots of hard Cs in old words.
Also, in a completely unrelated note, when reading Pr. Tolkien, Every C before an E (at the start of a name) is hard. Celeborn, Celebrant would be Keleborn and Kelebrant.
He was pronouncing it Ch not Se tbh mate. The Ch sound was used because the Anglo-Saxons were an Ingaevonic People, just like the Frisians, who also used the Ch Sound instead of the Hard K Sound.
A lot of the Hard K Pronunciation of Anglo-Saxon words, that are still in Today’s English, came into English from Norse and Danish Influence…
He's got an accent of some sort which may be affecting it.
He say "myff" in place of "myth" and "fought" in place of "thought" and "brovers" in place of "brothers".
See 3:34.
Tolkien was the foremost authority on Anglo Saxons and wrote the Oxford Dictionary, id trust his knowledge.
@@Excommunicated-ei1ep I believe that the letter C was pronounced as "k" in Old English. In Welsh and Irish the letter C is always "hard" like K and those languages don't need the letter K in their spelling for that reason. In English the "soft c" convention where "c" becomes "s" if it directly followed by "e, i or y" seems to be a later medieval invention and why Middle and Modern English need to use the letter K . In Old English there was a letter called "yogh" which looked like a "Z" or a "3" and represented a guttural sound, perhaps the Gaelic "ch' sound as in "loch" OR perhaps the "Dutch G" sound, OR perhaps both.
@@michaelhalsall5684
Sometimes is was Pronounced as a Hard K Sound and sometimes it was Pronounced with a Ch Sound, depending on Dialect or Grammar. The Ch Sound, as in Cheese or Church, which is similar in sound to todays Frisian, which has the Ts Sound, similar to Ch.
Ch: Cheese/Ts: Tsiis. Because
of this Ch/Ts Sound and other reasons, Anglo-Saxon and
Old Frisian, are often called
“Anglo-Frisian”. Because we
both make up “Ingaevonic”…which is 1 of the 3 Main Branches of West Germanic.
Wonderful series - thank you.
im a little late to watching the full thing, but great video. i still love the linguistics stuff, keep it up
Such a breath of fresh air to see an unbiased historical channel such as this one.

Interesting you mention this - the Canter is named after Canterbury!
Canterbury was the holiest christian site in England, and one of the holiest in all of Europe. Saint Thomas Beckett was murdered there on the orders of King Henry, and a cult developed around him which consumed England. Going to Canterbury was something many people would try to do. Many people took horses of course, and would take a relaxed riding pace known as a Canterbury Gallop, a Gallop to the City of Canterbury.
Fast forward a few hundred years, Canterbury Gallop is reduced to Canter.
it's real however! Only recent decades of Neo-Marxism and Neo-Liberalism under weird agendas are denying it and saying it's not true! Clearly political motivation.
@@noahtylerpritchett2682 What?
@@calum5975 Did Henry order his murder, or just "hint" that he'd be happy if someone were to do it?
Fascinating! Please carry on 🙏. I was struck by that list of landowners from Mercia... And your translation to 'border' . Does that make Marcomanni border people too?( Even though in another context)
Yes they are (same context) they were living in a march (borderland) situation with the celtic rhaetians and later romans just like the mercians with the welsh or the use if Mark in German when referring to Brandenburg and its people
Aswell as Denmark
Love your video
Thank you so much!
Honestly, this was an amazing summary of these places - far more in depth (yet also shorter!) than any coverage I've come across before.
Even today if youre from east Kent youre a man of Kent, if you come from the west its a Kentish man
Well done
A side note - The name "shire" (pronounced "shyer") has been revived in Australia to mean a Local Government Area particularly in rural areas area. An old Saxon name put back into modern usage.

Is there a video about Vikings and the foundation of the Kingdom of England mentioned at the end? I'd love to see more on this topic.

To my knowledge , the term sheriff derives from Shire Reeve. Shire from old English , meaning bright and sparkling stream / beck , which were natural borders between administrative areas, and Reeve, the king' s man in the shire responsible for collecting the King' s taxes.
Yes...I can believe this...as lot of English people look...Anglo-Saxon...red hair, blue eyes...brown and blonde hair..still have that look...noticed when on holiday there...recently...attractive looking...and tall...

I know quite a bit about UK history, but the Anglo-Saxon times were rather "dark ages" for me. Thank you for the information.

I always thought that the films did Mknas Tirith a disservice. Its supposed to be a green and fertile land, but it looks scrubby and abandoned past in the surrounding countryside. Also, the first encircling wall wasn't black
While your etymological explanation of the name Mercia might be correct, the comparisons you give are a bit confusing, since 'mark', at least in its modern meaning, is synonymous with 'land', and not 'border' in the Nordic languages. Meaning land of the Danes and land of the Finns, not borderlands (in Norwegian, Finn is also the name of the Saami who inhabit the region, so it's not a reference to the Finns of Finland).
I'm being picky. It was a good video. Very well done!
I'm sorry but the research done and even a quick Wiktionary search shows this isn't the case. March / Mark did mean, and continues to mean "Borderlands" in both English and German. I'm unsure if the word has evolved somewhat in Nordic languages, but the meaning when Denmark was named it definitely meant "Borderlands (Mork in Old Norse) of the Danes.
While Mark does in some form mean "land", it's just not any land. It's specifically land that borders a border. You can reduce that to simply refer to the borderlands as "the border"
When we said 'border' we didn't solely mean the invisible line dividing two countries but the general region of that.
You are correct about the Saami though. I'm surprised you still refer to Saami as Finn's. We use to call them Lapps in English, but this term is regarded as offensive now.
@@calum5975 As I said, I'm not questioning the meaning of the word in English (or German), only the comparison to the names in Danish and Norwegian, where the word has indeed evolved to mean 'land' rather than 'borderland'. You can read about that on Wiktionary as well. It makes sense, since Denmark is THE LAND of the Danes, not the borderlands. Same goes for Finnmark.
I am Swedish btw. We used to call the Saami Lappar (pl.) but not any longer. The area is still referred to as Lappland though, but also Sapmi if you want to be PC 🙂
@@John_Jim Yes, the point is though, the name of Denmark is older than the modern Danish language. It's from old Norse, and in old Norse the name means "March (borderland) of the Danes". The modern Danish words that evolved from those older Norse words don't specifically matter. The Old English words were much firmer cognates of old Norse "Mork" (from which Denmark evolved) than the modern Norse forms. The modern meaning of Mark doesn't matter - it's like using the modern definition of a word to define a word from the 500s. It's an anachronism.
Therefore, Mercia and (Den)mark are cognates. They've both evolved considerably (Mercia being a Latinised form of Meirce and Denmark a slow evolution from the old Norse name)
English has strangely and interestingly retained the old Germanic meaning much firmer than Danish or Swedish, it appears.
@@calum5975 I get you. I did not know the 'mark' in Denmark originally referred to the southern borderlands, but thought it was simply the land. I found the Wikipedia article about it. The etymology of Finnmark seems to be not as easy to find.
For you and all others everywhere where mark marc or some other derivitive of it is present, it represents germanic speaking borderlands with non germanic cultures such as Sorbs, Celtic or Finnic or in Denmarks case the North/West Germanic devide, have a nice day y'all
Why do they have to degrade an otherwise good video by using "C.E." rather than the conventional, historical "A.D."? The story of the Anglo Saxons in England hinges on their conversion to Christianity so why discard the Christian dating system we've used for 1500 years?
So true
Cool video. My comment is unrelated to the content of the documentary but rather the title of the video. Hewt is the Kurdish word we use for the number seven. Hewt = Hept. I thought that was interesting. First time I'm hearing of a Heptarchy.
Kurdish and Latin (where Hept comes from) are related languages! It's very interesting to see such similar words in such distant languages! It's an amazing way of seeing a common ancient heritage between vastly different modern groups!
@@KnowHistory yes, indeed... The numbers in Iranic languages are most similar to those in Slavic, but they also have cognates in Germanic and Latin etc. Some similar numbers to English are Chor = four, hesht = eight etc, also the word for horse which is ostor is exactly the same as the equivalent word used in Icelandic.

Heptarchy -- Literally the 7 kingdoms. Where else I heard that.
Where, precisely is the Umber? Is that the right name? This video made it seem that it was the Northern border of Mercia. I thought it North of that.
Am I wrong?
Do you mean the river "Humber" ? If so It's the large estuary that separates Mercia and Northumbria and even today is the border of both Lincolnshire and Yorkshire and hence northern England and The east Midlands. It's the estuary in the north eastern part of the map
In the images of the various rulers you have many of them in crowns which is historically inaccurate as crowns were not worn by Anglo-Saxon rulers (including Alfred the Great) until Athelstan, Alfred's grandson. he was the first to wear one. Think more them wearing the equivalent of the famous Sutton Hoo helmet, which very probably belonged to Raedwald.
What about the movement was from England to Denmark and not the other way around. It gives more sense, at least for me.
You forgot about Middlesex, or do you count that area as part of the Essex Kingdom.
17:26 I’m related to Ida.
Interestingly, Sussex was the last region to be Christianised even though it was next to Kent. Maybe the Sussaxons and Kentish people didn’t like each other much for a while.
Sussex and Kent have county cricket teams to this day. Sussex is the oldest county club in the world and also the oldest professional sports team.
Sussex was based on the area the Regni tribe inhabited, so it’s an older region.
The weald had a lot to do with that. Sussex was a very remote place then in many ways
The weald was around 90 miles long and 30 miles deep in those days

I wouldent say with full confidence that the Kentish weren’t at one point ruled by men named Hengist and Horsa.
It's funny, the Saxon kingdoms were Sussex -land of the south Saxons; Wessex -land of the west Saxons; Essex -land of the east Saxons; and of course, later we had right in the centre of these Middlesex. But I always imagine the Saxons to the north settling into their new home and holding a big meeting to name their new home, someone steps forward and says: Our new land will be called Nossex, whack! A sudden battle-axe to the head and the whole Moot votes to keep the old Romano-Celtic name for the land: Mercia.
Just a thought Kent was taken by the north Jutland people, like know Limfjorden major sea route (smaller boats) why England conquered?
Tall, Thick set ,wide shouldered Jutts, who are now known as Kents who love farming and animal breeding seems a plausible case to me. I'll put money on it.
Kent was first kingdom in world was held in high court Mt Olympus to be just that with an order of first five commandments by the emperor of Rome along with its statesman. Held in high court by the highest of Roman empire and God .
Jutz didn't come til counterfeit 2nd kingdom arose by not having authentic statesman or churches which was London England kents neighbor. When that happen the pix was invading so the king of England thought he could call for some help and sent an order to a legit statesman of Kent which made it to high court as statesman put order thru to Roman empire and was held in there high court Mt Olympus and when vortigan did so he exposed all his counterfeit doings with his requesting an order of mercenary s to help defend and exposing how he went about being a copy cat mocking God order of Kent and did not have blessing so doing so he exposed himself to be counterfeit to God in God's name In high court that day .
Also Hengist and Horsa was summoned and God told his sons will give Vortigan what he requested and also I want him also served and order to vacate that stated this my Son's of Wihtgisl,
Sons of Witta ,
Sons of Wecta,
Sons of Wodan arose of and are the only Royal tender and of south Abrams.
God told his boys to serve that order and make London one with Kent as it's an order to get mercenary s aka jutz and along the way home to rally the ANGLO SAXONS COBURG GOTHA letting any willing man that wants to fight ride along with the order . Vortigan thought it was a big laugh til he was invited to a Feist and all but one other than vortigan survived. vortigan left London high and dry never to return to England murdered by his own corrupt Welsh son counterfeit King Author of Welsh .

And anglo saxon england was a highly influential kingdom nobles had little influence earldoms where ruled by eldormans which was nonheriditary and they where appointed by the king as officials and underthem white counties earldoms then where devided into counties or Shires
Interestingly, Kent was the first Kingdom to submit to Christianity, and Sussex, next door, would be the last. Good holdout by Sussex. Interesting video.
That's a fascinating story in and of itself. The Sussex Rapes (subdivisions of Sussex were called that!) were rather isolated, the geography ensures that somewhat. Also, for some reason or another the Sussex kings were simply slow to adopt the faith, so building churches was delayed.
But really, "Susssex Rapes". Damn. What a quirk of English😅
