Early Anglo-Saxon England saw some of the most important elements
in the creation of modern England: the Germanic migrations after
the departure of the Romans and the introduction of Christianity in
the 7th century. While traditionally the early centuries of
Anglo-Saxon England have been disregarded as"'lost centuries,"
archaeological evidence, paired with the later written sources, can
reveal a complex and often sophisticated society. This period saw
the beginnings of urbanization, with the establishment of
market-places enabling the trade of local and exotic goods, and the
first schools were introduced in the 7th century.
Sally Crawford looks at how the Anglo-Saxons lived, from the
composition of an Anglo-Saxon family and how status was defined by
an individual's occupation, to the complexities of feasting and
drinking and how adults and children found entertainment.
