Interesting- clearly an introductory lecture so it skipped bits I would have thought of as important: the Romano-Brits were hopeless with arms because Roman Citizens were not allowed to carry weaponry, armour etc. - so all the skils from warrior skills to tactics and generalship had been lost after the Roman conquest. There was push as well as pull in the movement of these peoples from Jutland, Saxony and the Angle who moved and left deserted their old lands because of sea-salt poisoning the soil where they farmed - all this due to post-ice age buckling of the land making some parts dip down and others push up.

True. The typical Briton tribal structures would have been destroyed and had no army systems to defend themselves. They had fought off the Romans many times before, but on the 3rd try, with a much bigger army, the Romans managed to colonise. And after Rome collapsed, they had no tribal systems to fall back on. I really believe had Britain not been colonised by Rome, that they would have fought off the Saxons. (Recent DNA studies show that there was mass migration of Germanic peoples into Britain)

The question of sovereignty is linked to popularity. The Colonials have poached a Royal (Harry). His skill in navigating celebrity has made him a very popular resident and husband and parent of an American citizen. If crowned by the Archbishop(s) of Washington, he would be kung - as this is a religious office. The triumph of the Glorious Revolution is Parliament telling the Catholic Church to pound sound, ending the religious and anti-democratic wars sponsored by the Holy See. This confirms the legitimacy of the House if Windsor as a democratic sovereign. Of course Rome is still causing trouble by creating Ordinates to poach those elements of the Anglican Church who oppose the ordination of women. On the other hand, Ecumenical Patriarh Melios and the Great Synod have affirmed the validity of Anglican orders. What the Pope would do if forced to address this determination is interesting. And that is how Medieval History is linked to modern politics and religion.

Mostlikey the Romans called them all the same Saxonians or the later French Saxon (Even though there were 3 groups . Fris, Sansha (Saxon) and Anglas . The Jutes had always been trouble makers and did not have a working relationship with Rome. Roman records show these 3 having an alliance of sorts, or at lest they got along for the most part. The Romans named the southern eastern part of Britain the Saxon shore because most likely that's were the immigrants were processed . By 410ad the active Administration and active army of Rome left . By Then the Britons and Latin's had melded in to Romano-British . Roman records show that the " Saxons" Saxonians were given their freedom . Is Rome talking about Continental Saxons ? I believe not , but Anglo-Saxons or West Saxons now by 410ad. Then began a 100 year power Vacuum(Time of warlords and violence in Britain) . The Jutes were hired as Mercs at 1st and then taking Londinium (to control trade from Continental Europe ) and Pushing Romano-British and Native Britain's into what we call Wales and Cromwall . But by 500ad all these groups began to meld together culture wise. Till Wessex and Mercia were established around 520 ad? .

His argument is ridiculous. Wales lost their language due to mass migration from England into Wales (population doubled during the industrial revolution) and government efforts to suppress the language (banned in schools etc) and English was an established language at that time. It makes zero sense that a whole population would invent a new language based off trade with other countries. Zero. Thankfully we now have DNA evidence that proves there was mass migration of Germanic peoples into Britain which would explain the language change.

This is an interesting video, in that I've been watching lots of Time Team videos, and it always interests me the British seem to identify as Anglos and Saxons. As an armchair novice historian and American with a strong Irish Catholic upbringing, along with also being part Norwegian and German, I find understanding British history enlightening. I have a concept about how things might have gone down concerning Rome's departure and the arrival of the German's. When the Roman military pulled out of Britain around 400AD they had been Christian for 100 years, and I suspect the Church had a good foothold in controlling traditional communities when the foot soldiers went home. I suspect the Anglos and the Saxons where much like the Vikings around BC/AD, coastal raiders, etc.. I read something about maybe the Vatican, around 400AD, encouraged the recently Christianized Germans to migrate to Britain, and may have even helped finance them. What say you_

First Neo-lithic civilizations that built Stone-Hendge, followed by the Celtic and later Romano-British cultures that were there all built impressive stone structures probably related to the wealth of the Region. Later Anglo-Saxon Kingdoms became dominant following gradual rise of a united England. Finally the Normans came to dominate all of Britan.

The battle for Britannia between saxons & Vikings begin in earnest . Fighting each other on & off until 1066 , when English king Harold had defeated a major viking leader & his army in northern England. Soon after the Normans land on the south coast. Harold never managed to recall everyone that had fought the Vikings days earlier, bc he let most go home to sort the land the harvest etc , not knowing the Normans had landed. He fought bravely but not at full strength & the Normans won. That was last time England was successfully invaded.

If he wants to nonchalantly disregard the Anglo Saxons Historical sources in Saxo Gramaticus as folktales and myths but listen to a modern translation of some dude named Bede and Valetinius and Voldemort from Wales. First of all I doubt there is anyone even named Hengest or Horsa at the 600century, because the name Horsa(Horse) was pronounced Eoh, horse=eoh, anyhow there is nothing Bede written the dude who lived in Northumbria, the professor on this seminar/lecture states that the Brythonic Brittons so to speak are confounded only to Welsh area or wales, which is weird by itself since Wales is Gaelic.

The Germanic tribes like the angles, saxons, jutes and frissians etc only came to britain after the romans left in the early-mid 5th century. The native britons were in the island for a lot longer than that. For example Stonehenge is around 5000 years old. The germanic tribes are the newest arrivals to britain apart from the normans and the normans didn't make much impression on the population. The normans only replaced the land owning aristocracy. England refers to the south and eastern part of the island that was settled by the angles and saxons etc. Before that time there was no England or wales or Scotland.

The poor sound quality was more than I could endure.

The rejection of the careful and methodological account from the Saxon Annals, as opposed to the rant of Gildas, can only be explained as racism. No logical reason is offered as to why the English must have got their own dates wrong, despite having been the neighbours of a calendar-literate Roman Empire for 500 years in a period where there was frequent cultural interaction. There is only stereotyping of some 'thugs' (as he refers to the English) sitting round a bonfire telling stories. I'm not buying this inexplicable dismissal. Still, its well worth watching.

They did. It’s not a lie. Dal Riata was a kingdom that originated in Ireland. It spread, through conquest, into northern Britain and became Scotland. They conquered the Picts and merged. Then they conquered Welsh/ native Briton territories, Yr Hen Ogledd- The Old North. Ystrad Clud which was a Welsh kingdom, was conquered and annexed into Scotland. The king of Ystrad Clud was killed in Ireland at the request of the Scots king. At one point the Welsh kingdom was having to fight off the Irish raiders, Scots, Anglos and the Vikings. This is how the Scots were able to conquer Ystrad Clud because the kingdom was so weakened by attacks by other groups. Scotland is basically an Irish colony (settler colonisation), Gaelic replaced the native Brittonic/ Welsh language and culture, as did the Saxon culture and language in England. And there was an Irish colony, Dyfed, in (where we now call) Wales. And the Welsh kings had to kick them out (while at the same time having to fight off the Saxons). The Irish had a long history of raiding the Welsh coastline and were enemies. At one point, the Irish and Scots were enemies to the native Britons/ Welsh as the Saxons. They all pillaged, raided and invaded Britain and the Britons were spread out having to fight them all off. In fact, the Saxons used the Irish/ Scots invasion of Britain to justify the Saxons coming to Britain. And later on, the Irish would continue to raid and pillage the Welsh and English coast, which was a factor in the Normans going to Waterford. It’s not some 'Anglo' myth. It’s actually well documented in Brittonic history.

HE'S A KOOL PROFESSOR, buttttttt, 1.25 is the minimum time I would watch it.

It's very fashionable to say nowadays that there were virtually no Anglo-Saxons who came to England and it was all top-down, cultural elite changes. The trouble is, the evidence doesn't really support this idea. The Norman conquest was a genuine elite takeover but what do we see? Anglo Saxon continuity, even in the language of today's English, albeit now with Norman influence. Where is the evidence of Celtic continuity in England that we would expect to see? Cornwall, Cumbria, other pockets of the West Country, yes. But they were always outside the main migration areas anyway. The burden of proof should be on you to say why the evidence is wrong, not to say, 'well I know there's this evidence but I don't much care for it.' The professor refers to the fact that Welsh, Irish, Scottish people speak English today. But these nations are still Celtic in culture and place names, etc. England mainly isn't. Hengist and Horsa may well be as fake as Romulus and Remus, but that doesn't mean we can discount all of the other vidence as well.

Your comment aged VERY well, considering the recent DNA studies that disprove the 'elite migration model'. Mass migration of Germanic peoples did happen! Wales is a bilingual country, whereas Brittonic disappeared in England. And as you say, has still retained a 'Celtic' identity.

I was hoping this would help me beat Assassins Creed Valhalla, since we live in a holographic illusion of course history is based on video games.

Luckily the British inherited enough Roman DNA and Roman culture to build an empire and bring about an industrial revolution

@@robertsettle2590 Correct the the Saxons, Angles, Vikings, and Normans were and always will be invaders. Only the Cornish, Welsh, Mannish, Picts and formerly the kingdom Alt Clut can lay claim to be original Briton's.

Wales lost the language due to MASS MIGRATION (during the industrial revolution) from England and also government efforts to stamp it out. English was an already established language when it was imposed on and imported into Wales (and Ireland). And Wales is a bilingual country, whereas Brittonic completely disappeared in England. Both Wales and Ireland were dominated by much larger countries. We now have DNA evidence of MASS MIGRATION into Britain, of Germanic peoples which would explain the change in language. People do not spontaneously make up a new language due to a small number of 'elite' warriors.

The Anglo Saxons did not come from Northern Germany. They came from Flanders. (and nowadays called French Flanders) Old English and Flemish used to be one and the same language in every regard. This is still seen in the spelling of practically every English word. It's pure Flemish. The claim the Anglo Saxons came from northern Germany is based upon a historical mistake made by some Dutch monks in the 14th century who situated the anglos and saxons north to Noviamagus (Nijmegen)in Holland not knowing of Noviomagus in Northern France, the real residence of Charlmagne. And proven so!

The thumbnail on your video is so disingenuous. It reminds me of when Trump drew his little extension of Hurricane Dorians path to make his lies "true". The north east of Ireland in that time period was just as Irish as the south west of Ireland in the same period. You can pretend that they stood outside Irish society of the 5th and 6th century to assuage to feeling of present day Scottish nationalists, but it does harms your reputation.

What’s most misleading is the label “Scots/Irish” - which doesn’t even make sense for that period. “Scotti” (ie Scots) was just the Roman term for the Irish, who were all part of the larger “Gaeldom” that stretched from Muster to the Hebrides. The people who are referred to as “Scots/Irish” in modern times are not Gaels. Before the ethnic cleansing (or “clearances”) of the the 6 counties, the Western Isles, and the Highlands, the Irish & Scottish Gaels had been united by blood, culture, & religion. That’s why they were cleared out to make room for Brits who not only shared none of these bonds with the natives, they actively opposed all things Gaelic. The “Scots/Irish” come almost exclusively from the Lowlands & Scottish borders, which outside of Galloway -for a relatively period of time- had never been part of that Irish or greater Gaelic world and to this day don’t belong in it. Once we reach unification (by 2030), they can choose to either embrace the people & the country they are living in, or they can -this may sound like a crazy idea- go live in Britain if they’re “British identity” is important. They already have the Union Jack flying over there & I’m sure they allow parades, so it should make for a seamless transition.
