History:
The Saxons were a Germanic people who settled in Britain during the early medieval period. Known for their fierce independence and tribal loyalty, they formed a patchwork of kingdoms across England. By the 8th and 9th centuries, Saxon warbands were a key force resisting Viking incursions and maintaining control of their territories. Armed with spears, axes, and bows, and often reinforced by cavalry, Saxon warriors were formidable foes. Their shieldwalls became iconic of the era, and their legacy endures in the foundations of English culture and defence.
