Estamos reunidos para hablar sobre cómo nuestro pueblo, nuestra gente, nuestras tradiciones y precedentes se están viendo afectados por las incursiones de los daneses en nuestras tierras. La toma de acciones y decisiones para coordinar la defensa de nuestro territorio es fundamental para evitar que, esas personas danesas, esos vikingos quieran seguir atentando contra nosotros para degenerar nuestra cultura y aprovecharse de nosotros. No es momento de celebrar, no es momento de sentarnos a conversar sobre quien va ser rey en cada territorio, no, estamos acá para luchar por nuestra amada Inglaterra, si tenemos que responder a los ataques lo haremos, pero no sucumbiremos en el miedo de esa población que solo quiere acabar con nosotros. Siendo así, nosotros, Alfredo El Grande y Ethelredo I, convocamos a que este Witenagemot tome acciones para responder a las incursiones vikingas en nuestro territorio inglés y así acabar de una vez por todas con los daneses que solo quieren destrucción. Contexto A nales del siglo VIII, mientras Carlomagno creaba un inmenso imperio en el continente europeo, Inglaterra se hallaba dividida en siete reinos surgidos de sajones, anglos y jutos, los pueblos que habían invadido Gran Bretaña cuando declinaba el Imperio romano. De todos ellos sobresalía el oreciente reino sajón de Wessex, hasta el punto de que sus monarcas se creían soberanos de los ingleses. Sus reyes avanzaron hacia el norte, ocupando incluso el reino anglo de Northumbria, cuyos habitantes "lloraban por su libertad perdida" convencidos de que para ellos había acabado la historia. Pero no fue así. En 787, según la Crónica anglosajona, atracaron tres naves en la costa de Wessex y de ellas salió un grupo de hombres aguerridos procedente del otro lado del mar del Norte. Los llamaron wicingas, "ladrones del mar", es decir, vikingos, un nombre que los identicaba perfectamente ya que se dedicaban al pillaje y el saqueo en medio de crueles rituales. Regresaron cinco años más tarde, en 793, pero ahora a la costa de Northumbria, donde saquearon el prestigioso monasterio de Lindisfarne, y un año después hicieron lo mismo con el de Jarrow. 5 CONTEXTO HISTÓRICO Reinos anglosajones (650- 800 AD) División La Inglaterra Anglosajona está subdividida por medio de una heptarquía la cual, contempla la conformación de los siete reinos anglosajones principales. Los Cuatro principales reinos son: Wessex Anglia Oriental Mercia Northumbria Bernicia Deira Los reinos menores son: Kent Sussex Essex Existen otros reinos y territorios que, si bien hacen parte de Gran Bretaña, no son principales dentro del contexto, estos son: Reino de Ynis Weith Meonwara Surrey Reino de los Iclingas Lindsey Hwicce Magonsaete Pecsæte Wreocensæte Tomsæte Haestingas Anglos Medios. (Map of Anglo-Saxon England, c. AD 800, 2018) 6 CONTEXTO HISTÓRICO Incursiones Vikingas Durante los siglos VIII y IX Europa Occidental y las Islas Británicas fueron asoladas por los asaltantes y colonos Escandinavos quienes eran conocidos como Vikingos. Estos comenzaron con ataques a las islas británicas que se dieron nales de siglo octavo, en su mayoría a iglesias y monasterios que eran vistos como fuentes de riqueza para los asaltantes. Las Crónicas Anglosajonas determinaron que el monasterio de Lindisfarne fue saqueado en 793 siendo así que durante cuarenta años los ataques fueron suspendidos hasta que en el 835 retomaron estos y empezaron a ser más seguidos. En la década de 860 los asaltos pasaron de ser algo pequeño a algo de gran escala, pues los daneses organizaron una invasión con el denominado Gran Ejército Pagano (así lo denominan los ingleses) reforzado con el Gran Ejército de Verano. Fue así donde los vikingos fueron tomando y destruyendo las principales ciudades de Gran Bretaña, sacudiéndose hasta dejarlos sin nada, solo hubo un reino que logró resistir los ataques de los daneses, el Reino de Wessex el cual al mando de Alfredo hostigó a los vikingos hasta rmar un tratado de paz en el que se dividían las tierras, pero siempre manteniendo un espíritu de estar preparados para la guerra, esto reconoció que gran parte de Inglaterra estaba en manos danesas. Las conquistas escandinavas en Inglaterra dejaron profundas marcas en las áreas afectadas, en la estructura social, dialecto, topónimos y nombres personales, como ejemplo tenemos el área de la Danelaw, cuyo nombre deriva del inglés antiguo Dena lagu ("ley de los daneses"), consecuencia de la división del territorio. Los daneses no resolvieron la totalidad de esta amplia área de manera intensiva, pero su poderosa aristocracia militar dominó durante un período suciente para dejar su huella en las costumbres locales en el tiempo y hasta la actualidad. Las incursiones vikingas sucedieron a nales del siglo VIII, en el siglo noveno se desarrollaron incursiones a gran escala dentro de Gran Bretaña y también en el Imperio Franco. Egbert, Rey de Wessex derrotó una gran fuerza vikinga en 838 que se había mezclado con los británicos de Cornwall y Aethelwulf donde la victoria fue en 851 sobre un ejército vikingo que había asaltado Canterbury y Londres y había puesto a la fuga del rey de Mercia. Las incursiones destructivas se denotan para Northumbria, East Anglia, Kent y Wessex. (John S. Morrill, 2019) 7 ORGANIZACIÓN POLÍTICA Witenagemot El Witenagemot, fue una institución política en la Inglaterra Anglosajona que funcionó entre los siglos VII y Xi. El nombre etimológicamente en el antiguo ingles signica “Asamblea de Hombres Sabios” donde, el “Witan” hace referencia a un hombre sabio o en su efecto a un consejero y el “Gamot” representa a una Asamblea. En esta institución se reunían las personas más importantes del reino, entre esas se encontraban los obispos, abades1, ealdormen2, y consejeros del rey Sus orígenes yacen en las asambleas germánicas creadas para vigilar las concesiones reales de las tierras. Cada Rey de una ciudad importante (Essex, Kent, Mercia, Northumbria, Sussex y Wessex) convocaba miembros para que asistieran a estas asambleas y discutieran los temas que fueran más convenientes. Los que eran convocados tenían la tarea fundamental de aconsejar sobre la administración y organización del reino, las discusiones giraban en torno a impuestos, jurisprudencia y seguridad. El apoyo de los miembros del Witan era imperante para determinar quién iba a ser nombrado rey. 1 Superior de un monasterio con facultad de conferir órdenes menores a sus monjes 2 SFuncionario real de alto rango y magistrado anterior de un grupo de condados. Ordena al 8 ejército del condado y a los distritos bajo su control a nombre del rey OBJETIVO DEL BANDO Se tiene en cuenta que la existencia de líneas privadas que cada personaje tendrá si bien debe ser importante para que cada uno persiga sus objetivos personales, la naturaleza del comité es un enfrentamiento bélico, donde se instará a los delegados a perseguir un objetivo común, que, para los efectos del comité, será, ganar la guerra, es decir, defender a toda costa el Reino de Gran Bretaña de las incursiones del Gran Ejército Pagano y acabar con estos. Dentro del comité existirán situaciones alternas que, si bien tienen que ver con el objetivo principal, tendrán que desarrollarse en paralelo. El Centro de Estrategia se encargará de manejar las batallas que en la línea histórica sucedieron y con ellas en su respectiva discreción pueden colocar nuevos escenarios que desarrollen la historia de una manera más violenta o más pacíca. De igual manera los escenarios que se vayan presentando no solamente adecuarán la guerra, sino que habrá caminos que sean correspondientes a los ámbitos sociales, políticos y económicos entre el bando, todo referente a que se debe mantener una imagen correcta y apta para derrotar al enemigo. Conociendo bien lo que se puede llegar a presentar, es de suma importancia ver que para ganar la guerra se demuestre conocimiento en materia de que todo aquello que trascienda en las batallas que se vayan presentando no generen pérdidas y que las ganancias que se lleven a cabo sean fructíferas en aras de que el bando vaya más allá de solo derrotar a los vikingos.

CVIIL—OCTOBER 1912 The Tribal Hidage Downloaded from HE ancient territorial list which Maitland named the T ' Tribal Hidage ' is known in two slightly differing forms, which may for convenience be designated the ' English ' and the ' Latin ', from the circumstance that one form is in English http://ehr.oxfordjournals.org/ throughout while the other has been partially translated into Latin. The only ' English ' text now known was discovered by Dr. Birch in the Harleian MS. 3271, fo. 0 b, and printed by him in full,1 but the names and figures had been published by Spelnian in 1626 in his Glossarium (s.v. Hide), from what he calls a veterrima scheda (perhaps a loose leaf or gathering) in the possession of Francis Tatum.2 The volume in which Dr. Birch found it is occupied mainly with grammatical treatises, but some miscel- by guest on August 11, 2015 laneous pieces are entered, in several hands, all of much the same period. The ' Tribal Hidage ' fills up what had been a blank page near the beginning.3 In the same or a like writing at the end of the book are chronological notes, ending with the state- ment that it was 6,132 years from the Creation; that Easter would fall on 2 April; that it was a leap year and the fifteenth indiction. These conditions are satisfied by the year 1032. In the ' Hidage ' the numbers are written out at length ; the whole has been corrected by another and perhaps somewhat later hand. Thus hund has been added in Herefinna (twelf hund hyda) and in the final total (twa hund thusend), and some words have been corrected ;4 while to Fcerpinga has been added the marginal note—' Is in Middel Englu Faerpinga'.

  • Corhampton Churvch History
    History of Corhampton Church Early history and background The church is remarkable in having no known dedication. It has just been Corhampton Church as far as we know for the whole of its long life. There is a reference to Quedementune in the Domesday Book, but there is no mention of the church and this is strange, for not only is it unquestionably Saxon, but it is a wonderful example of a small village pre-Conquest church that has remained almost unaltered from the time that it was built, and which is one of the most important Saxon churches in Southern England. So what is the origin of the name? In mediaeval days it is said to have borne the name Cornhamptone. However, about two hundred years ago it seems that the people of Corhampton called it Carmenton, which properly should be Carmeonton (‘ton’ is Saxon for an enclosure and ‘car’ means fortress but is of WeIsh derivation). Certainly the church is built on a mound but whether this was ever fortified must be questionable. Writing in Volume II of Hampshire Notes and Queries published in 1884, A V Walters, B.A, suggests that Carmeonton "would indicate a town on the Meon at the Carrs". Carr means an association of trees and shrubs developing at edges of swamps or fens, and there has always been a mill at Corhampton (to the north of the church). A thousand years ago the River Meon was both navigable and much wider, so this latter interpretation makes sense. The church looks as if it was built on an artificial mound.

It is also one of the most interesting of the counties, from the importance in early English history of its charming capital, the architectural value of its Cathedral and three of its other churches, its beautiful combinations of woodland and sea, its possession of more genuine forest than all the rest of England put together, and its chief place in the naval position of England, owing to the two great harbours afforded by its fortunate coast-line. To an editor of Memorials of Old Hampshire the first difficulty, therefore, is clearly of selection. It would not be difficult to imagine another volume of the present size made up only of those subjects that—for one reason or another—I have been obliged to pass over.

  • A Place-Name Survey Introduction
    © Kelly Kilpatrick 2014. This research is made freely available and may be used without permission, provided that acknowledgement is made of the author, title and web-address. Saxons in the Meon Valley: A Place-Name Survey Dr Kelly A. Kilpatrick Institute for Name-Studies, University of Nottingham Introduction The Meon Valley in southern Hampshire is defined by the River Meon, a chalk river, which rises at the village of East Meon and flows to the Solent at Titchfield Haven. The Meon Valley area contains the parishes of East and West Meon, Warnford, Exton, Corhampton, Meonstoke, Droxford, Soberton, Wickham and Fareham (for Titchfield); also associated with this region are the parishes of Shedfield, Swanmore, Privett, Froxfield, Steep, Langrish and East and West Tisted. Place-names preserve information about topographic, linguistic and cultural conditions at the time of their formation, and therefore are a useful resource for investigating the past. The toponymic survey presented below is intended to compliment the ‘Story of the Saxons in the Meon Valley’ project, and to provide a general synopsis of the region’s Anglo-Saxon history through place- name evidence. This survey covers the geographical scope of the field-work carried out in the project. Firstly, an introduction to the Jutes of southern Hampshire is presented, followed by a discussion of the Meon River and the Meonware. The following toponymic survey adheres to the structure of the English Place-Name Society county survey volumes. The place-names are organised hierarchically by hundreds, then parishes. Major settlements are discussed first in each parish, followed by minor names of etymological interest arranged alphabetically.

Canute's capital was in Winchester 10 miles to the west Tacross the South Downs. The Church, a grade 1 listed building, has remained largely unchanged as a centre for the community and of Christian worship for nearly 1000 years. The church is remarkable for the fact that it is one of a handful of churches not having a titular dedication e.g. the name of a saint. Churches of the late Saxon era (there were about twenty in the Meon Valley) were built under the patronage of the lord of the local Manor. This lord would have the right to choose to whom the church would be dedicated. As far as is known the church at Corhampton has never had such a dedication.1 The Origin of the name ‘Corhampton’ ede, a monk from Northumbria, wrote in the 8th century about the Provincia Meanwarorum, the Province of the Meonwara. The Meonwara2 were the ‘people of the Meon’. Bede refers to the hamlet of Cornhampton referring to the settlement on the west bank of the Meon in which corn was milled and traded.

  • Dark Age Isles Summary
    Dark Age Isles Summary By Matt Schwoebel Dark Age Isles: Rome, Arthur, and the New West (337-686 A.D.) is a heuristic, generational, geographic history of the Dark Age period in the Isles – Britain (England, Scotland, & Wales), Ireland, and Brittany (Armorica) including adjacent areas of Gaul/Francia. Contents: I. Introduction to Dark Age Isles Myth and Reality Page 2 II. Seven Cultural-Historical Phases Page 4 III. Generation Timeline Page 7 1 © Matt Schwoebel I. Introduction to Dark Age Isles Myth and Reality The period and place covered by this book represent one of the least enlightened by surviving written records from the Dark Ages. Between 337 A.D. and 686 A.D, the reasonably integrated Roman province of Britannia became an early form of England (or Angleland) divided into multiple kingdoms. The imperial language of Latin (in its vulgar form) was no longer spoken. Unusually in former western imperial lands a native language, Brythonic Celtic (Welsh), AND a conqueror language, Anglo-Saxon (English), arose to replace Latin. This linguistic situation is unique with Basque (Euskara) being the only other pre-Roman native survivor. Elsewhere a Latin dialect prevailed or a Germanic or Slavic conqueror language replaced it. There are eight myths listed below that will be addressed by this book. It will describe seven main cultural-historical phases between the death of Emperor Constantine the Great in 337 A.D. and the death of the last Pagan Saes king in 686 A.D. (along with the great Pict victory the year before). The main portion of the book will describe the changing situation in Britannia (England & Wales), Hibernia (Ireland), Caledonia (Pictland/Scotland), and an extended Armorica (Brittany) generation by generation.

  • On the Territorial Organisation of Early Medieval Hampshire
    Chapter 13 On the Territorial Organisation of Early Medieval Hampshire Stuart Brookes Barbara Yorke’s typically incisive work, integrating historical and archaeologi- cal approaches, has to me always demonstrated most clearly the value of adopt- ing a multi-disciplinary approach. Her willingness to include archaeological evidence alongside that from written sources has facilitated the analysis of Anglo-Saxon England, and Wessex in particular, in a way that provides insights of equal relevance to those who study the social, cultural, historical, or landscape dimensions of early medieval societies. Barbara’s interest in multi- disciplinarity has seen her form a long and fruitful collaboration with archaeologists at ucl, co-investigating on a number of research projects. It is through my work on two of these projects—Landscapes of Governance and Travel and Communication in Anglo-Saxon England1—that I first properly got to known her. Drawing on aspects of research that emerged from these projects, this paper reviews the evidence for the political geography of early Hampshire—an area so well known to Barbara. The recent identification in Hampshire of a number of early territories underlying the later configuration of administrative divi- sions allows for a more detailed examination of the internal organisation of early medieval kingdoms.2 This paper makes observations about the suggested ‘small shires’ of Hampshire and describes some of the features of these early territories. It is argued that different types of territories can be identified, the comparison of which throws light on the evolution of local districts and of early Anglo-Saxon kingdoms. ‘Folk’ Territories and Meeting-places in Anglo-Saxon England Landscape archaeologists and historians have suggested the existence of a number of early territorial entities—larger than the hundred but smaller than 1 <www.ucl.ac.uk/archaeology/research/projects/assembly>; <www.ucl.ac.uk/archaeology/ research/directory/travel-communication-anglo-saxon-england>.

  • Wessex in the Early Middle Ages Digest of the Book by Barbara Yorke
    Wessex in the Early Middle Ages Digest of the book by Barbara Yorke Introduction I took these notes (jottings, really) whilst reading this book, which had been recommended to me by Nick Stoodley as a good introduction to the history of the Saxons in the Meon Valley. I have mainly noted the passages which are relevant to the Meon Valley. General Until the 9th century, Wessex was not a national region. Until now, the literary sources have led the way for archaeological research. In 410, Britain ceased to be part of the Roman Empire. Town life declined, villas were abandoned, Germanic burial grounds start to appear. (BY debates whether the Meonstoke villa was British or German.) Post-Roman traces in eastern Hants, Froxfield entrenchment, Germanic settlement in Portchester Castle. (‘Port’ was probably derived from the name of a king, hence Portsea, Portsmouth &c.) Anglo Saxon Chronicle’s account of 5th and 6th centuries is unreliable. Saxon settlers were not literate until Christianity brought literacy. Creation of Wessex 600 - 802 The Isle of Wight was an independent kingdom, founded according to the Chronicle by Stuf and Wihtgar. The Solent was also described as a Jutish kingdom. There were connections between the Jutes of the IoW and the Meon Valley and the Jutes of Kent. (See last chapter, Alton jewel.) Now missing, in a valley near East Meon was a settlement named ‘Ytedene’, ‘valley of the Jutes’. Wulfhere of Mercia handed the ‘Jutish province’ of Meonwara (people of the Meon) to King Aethelwalh of the South Saxons. Wessex was created by the conquests of the Royal House of Gewisse in the 6th and 7th centuries, starting in the Upper Thames Valley.

  • Origins 7Th Century to 1050 the Christian Faith Probably Reached the Meon Valley in the 7Th Century
    In October 2007 the vicar of All Saints, the Reverend Terry Louden, gave a talk from the church pulpit to the village Garden Club. In it he described the history of All Saints. Origins 7th Century to 1050 The Christian faith probably reached the Meon Valley in the 7th century. There is something of a debate about which Christian missionary was responsible for the growth of the faith in this area. Some students of history opt for a man called Birinus. Birinus was probably of Germanic descent, but came as part of the Roman mission inaugurated by Augustine of Canterbury in 597. Birinus found the people of Wessex still heathen and decided to work among them. He established a church at Porchester on the Solent, and then gradually worked his way northward, baptising and teaching as he went. St Birinus He died at Dorchester on Thames in about 650, having founded a see there. The bishopric of Dorchester was then divided into two before the end of the 7th century, and the southern part became the diocese of Winchester. The other missionary responsible for Christian work in this area was a man called Wilfrid. Wilfrid was born in Northumbria in 634, educated in the monastery of Lindisfarne, and subsequently in Rome. Wilfrid became a strong supporter of the Roman church customs as opposed to the Celtic ways of northern England. He was a courageous and pugnacious character, firm in his convictions, to the extent that his enthusiasm led him to fall foul of civil and religious authorities. One such disagreement forced him to travel south, where from about 678-686 he was St Wilfrid based at Selsey, where he was responsible for the conversion of the south Saxons – Sussex to you and me.
