文摘THE ANGLO-SAXON PERIOD(450--1066)
1. Historical background
The earliest settlers of the British Isles were the Celts, who originally lived in the upper Rhineland and migrated "to the British Isles about 600 B. C.. About 400 to 300 B. C. the Brythons, a branch of the Celts, came to the British Isles and from them came the name Britain. The culture of the Celts belonged to an early stage of the Iron Age. They knew how to make iron swords and grow crops. Very little is known about their beliefs, hut we know about their religious ceremonies of May Day and the cult of mistletoe, which have become part of the national tradition of the English people.
From 55 B.C. to 407 A.D. the British Isles were under the rule of the Roman Empire. At that time the Roman Empire was a slave society. It ruled over Europe and had a high level of civilization. The Romans defeated the Celts and became the masters of the British Isles. It was during the Roman occupation that London was founded.
The first Roman general who came to Britain was the famous Julius Caesar (102--44 B. C. ) who crossed the Dover Strait in 55 B. C. with a force of 10,000 men after his victory over the Gauls. But he stayed there only for a few weeks, and although he came back again in the following year, he did not station Roman troops on the isles as he was busily engaged in suppressing rebellions on the Continent and fighting the civil war at home. Almost a century elapsed before the Romans extended their conquest of Britain.
