    The first Anglo-Saxons invaded and colonized Britania in the V and VI centuries. The diverse kingdoms that would compose further on the Heptarquía Anglosajona emerged during the VI century: the kingdoms of Kent, Northumbria (Bernicia and Deira) and Lindsey probably along opposite already existing, while the western kingdoms of Wessex and Mercia do not show continuity signs.

    Second Invaders: The Celts
    The “Celts” were warring tribes. The Celts gradually infiltrated Britain over the course of the centuries between about 500 and 100 B.C. The Celts were a group of peoples loosely tied by similar language, religion, and cultural expression. They were warriors, living for the glories of battle and plunder. They were also the people who brought iron working to the British Isles.

    Anglo-Saxon England was early medieval England, existing from the 5th to the 11th century from the end of Roman Britain until the Norman conquest in 1066.
    The Anglo-Saxons were the members of Germanic-speaking groups who migrated to the southern half of the island from continental Europe, and their cultural descendants. Anglo-Saxon history thus begins during the period of Sub-Roman Britain following the end of Roman control.
