  • Kingdom of Strathclyde from Wikipedia, the Free Encyclopedia
    Kingdom of Strathclyde From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Strathclyde (lit. "Strath of the Clyde"), originally Brythonic Ystrad Clud, was one of the early medieval kingdoms of the Kingdom of Strathclyde Celtic people called the Britons in the Hen Ogledd, the Teyrnas Ystrad Clut Brythonic-speaking parts of what is now southern Scotland and northern England. The kingdom developed during the ← 5th century–11th → post-Roman period. It is also known as Alt Clut, the Brythonic century name for Dumbarton Rock, the medieval capital of the region. It may have had its origins with the Damnonii people of Ptolemy's Geographia. The language of Strathclyde, and that of the Britons in surrounding areas under non-native rulership, is known as Cumbric, a dialect or language closely related to Old Welsh. Place-name and archaeological evidence points to some settlement by Norse or Norse–Gaels in the Viking Age, although to a lesser degree than in neighbouring Galloway. A small number of Anglian place-names show some limited settlement by incomers from Northumbria prior to the Norse settlement. Due to the series of language changes in the area, it is not possible to say whether any Goidelic settlement took place before Gaelic was introduced in the High Middle Ages. After the sack of Dumbarton Rock by a Viking army from Dublin in 870, the name Strathclyde comes into use, perhaps reflecting a move of the centre of the kingdom to Govan. In the same period, it was also referred to as Cumbria, and its inhabitants as Cumbrians. During the High Middle Ages, the area was conquered by the Kingdom of Alba, becoming part of The core of Strathclyde is the strath of the River Clyde.

  • A Welsh Classical Dictionary
    A WELSH CLASSICAL DICTIONARY DACHUN, saint of Bodmin. See s.n. Credan. He has been wrongly identified with an Irish saint Dagan in LBS II.281, 285. G.H.Doble seems to have been misled in the same way (The Saints of Cornwall, IV. 156). DAGAN or DANOG, abbot of Llancarfan. He appears as Danoc in one of the ‘Llancarfan Charters’ appended to the Life of St.Cadog (§62 in VSB p.130). Here he is a clerical witness with Sulien (presumably abbot) and king Morgan [ab Athrwys]. He appears as abbot of Llancarfan in five charters in the Book of Llandaf, where he is called Danoc abbas Carbani Uallis (BLD 179c), and Dagan(us) abbas Carbani Uallis (BLD 158, 175, 186b, 195). In these five charters he is contemporary with bishop Berthwyn and Ithel ap Morgan, king of Glywysing. He succeeded Sulien as abbot and was succeeded by Paul. See Trans.Cym., 1948 pp.291-2, (but ignore the dates), and compare Wendy Davies, LlCh p.55 where Danog and Dagan are distinguished. Wendy Davies dates the BLD charters c.A.D.722 to 740 (ibid., pp.102 - 114). DALLDAF ail CUNIN COF. (Legendary). He is included in the tale of ‘Culhwch and Olwen’ as one of the warriors of Arthur's Court: Dalldaf eil Kimin Cof (WM 460, RM 106). In a triad (TYP no.73) he is called Dalldaf eil Cunyn Cof, one of the ‘Three Peers’ of Arthur's Court. In another triad (TYP no.41) we are told that Fferlas (Grey Fetlock), the horse of Dalldaf eil Cunin Cof, was one of the ‘Three Lovers' Horses’ (or perhaps ‘Beloved Horses’).

Broad: ‘Northumberland at War’. At the Battle of Towton in 1461 the Lancastrian forces of Henry VI were defeated by the Yorkist forces of Edward IV. However Henry VI, with his wife, son and a few knights, fled north and found sanctuary in Scotland, where, in exchange for the town of Berwick, the Scots granted them finance, housing and troops. Henry was therefore able to maintain a presence in Northumberland and his supporters were able to claim that he was in fact as well as in theory sovereign resident in Northumberland.

    Cambridge University Press 978-0-521-73073-0 - The Cambridge Companion to Bede Edited by Scott DeGregorio Frontmatter More information the cambridge companion to bede As the major writer and thinker of the Anglo-Saxon period, the Venerable Bede is a key figure in the study of the literature and thought of this time. This Companion, written by an international team of specialists, is a key introductory guide to Bede, his writings and his world. The first part of the volume focuses on Bede’s cultural and intellectual milieu, covering his life, the secular-political contexts of his day, the foundations of the Latin learning he inherited and sought to perpetuate, the ecclesiastical and monastic setting of early Northumbria, and the foundation of his home institution, Wearmouth-Jarrow. The book then considers Bede’s writing in detail, treating his educational, exegetical and histor- ical works. Concluding with a detailed assessment of Bede’sinfluence and recep- tion from the time of his death up to the modern age, the Companion enables the reader to view Bede’s writings within a wider cultural context. scott degregorio is Associate Professor of English Literature at the University of Michigan – Dearborn. He has published extensively on Bede as a biblical exegete and Church reformer. His books include, as editor, Innovation and Tradition in the Writings of the Venerable Bede, and, as translator, Bede: On Ezra and Nehemiah, which won the International Society of Anglo-Saxonists’ prize for best edition/translation published in Anglo-Saxon studies, 2005–7.

  • Diarrhoea, Dysentery, and the Clap: Connecting the Military Lifestyle to Literary & Skeletal Evidence of Reactive Arthropathy Induced by Bacterial Infections
    DIARRHOEA, DYSENTERY, AND THE CLAP: CONNECTING THE MILITARY LIFESTYLE TO LITERARY & SKELETAL EVIDENCE OF REACTIVE ARTHROPATHY INDUCED BY BACTERIAL INFECTIONS Meghan E. Banton Thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy UNIVERSITY COLLEGE LONDON Institute of Archaeology [1] DECLARATION I, Meghan E. Banton, confirm that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Where information has been derived from other sources, I confirm that this has been indicated in the thesis. ABSTRACT Military combatants are frequently exposed to physical exertion, sleep deprivation, deficient diets, and stress, which can all reduce the immune system’s ability to ward off infections. Making matters worse, combatants frequently inhabit overcrowded and unsanitary living conditions, which allow bacteria to thrive. As a result of these circumstances, the military lifestyle is associated with increased exposure and susceptibility to infectious diseases. This explains why epidemics are extremely common during times of war, especially in pre-twentieth century conflicts. Though military infectious diseases have been the topic of much research, bioarchaeological contributions have been limited, as most infectious diseases do not cause direct skeletal changes. For example, diarrhoea, dysentery, gonorrhea, and tonsillitis do not cause skeletal changes, but all are known to have been common among historical combatants. Though direct skeletal changes are not produced, the pathogenic bacteria causing these ailments can trigger reactive arthropathies (arthritic conditions caused by microbial infections), which includes the Spondyloarthropathies. Spondyloarthropathies cause skeletal changes and can be observed in archaeological remains. As such, the present research has chosen to explore the potential consequences of military infectious disease by answering the following question: were reactive arthropathies an occupational hazard to past military combatants? This question is answered through two methods.

  • Britons and Anglo-Saxons: Lincolnshire Ad 400-650
    The Archaeological Journal Book Reviews BRITONS AND ANGLO-SAXONS: LINCOLNSHIRE AD 400-650. By Thomas Green. Pp. xvi and 320, Illus 48. The History of Lincolnshire Committee (Studies in the History of Lincolnshire, 3), 2012. Price: £17.95. ISBN 978 090266 825 6. Following the completion of the History of Lincolnshire Committee’s admirable twelve- volume history of the county, this book represents the third of a new series of more detailed studies of the region. Based upon his Ph D thesis, Thomas Green addresses the extent of Anglo-Saxon acculturation of Lincolnshire in the centuries following the withdrawal of the Roman legions, and the late survival of the British kingdom of Lindsey, centred on Lincoln. Despite Lincolnshire’s vulnerability to mass Germanic migration — according to traditional models — the substantial mid-fifth-century and later Anglo-Saxon cremation cemeteries, for which the county is famous, form a broad ring around Lincoln itself, which has little evidence for Anglo-Saxon activity until the mid-seventh century. Lincoln and its hinterland are instead characterized by British practice, particularly metalwork, which is extremely unusual for eastern England. The city is recorded as a metropolitan see in AD 314, and there is archaeological evidence for Romano-British continuity at the church of St Paul-in-the-Bail. Green favours a settlement model derived from Gildas, whereby the post-Roman British kings (‘tyrants’) of Lincoln directed and controlled Anglo-Saxon settlement in the county, potentially employing the migrants as mercenaries, although the argument that their major cremation cemeteries were located on strategic routes into the city is simplistically handled (pp.
