Normans in the south and vikings in the north
The defending army were the Saxons and the invading army were the Normans I am doing this for the 1066 word search for school
The warriors invading Northern England in 1066 were the Normans, lead by King Harold's brother, Tostig, and Harald Hardrada. They defeated the local forces, but Harold marched north and killed both, securing victory.
There is no historic record that William the Conquerer killed anyone personally with his own hands. At the Battle of Hastings in 1066 William's invading army killed many defenders of England in the army of King Harold.
We seem to be talking about England. The first battle of 1066 was the Battle of Fulford near York (Sep 20) between the northern army and the invading Norwegians. (which the Norwegians won) Shortly afterwards (Sep 25) , when Harold II arrived with the southern army, there was a replay called the Battle of Stamford Bridge. (which England won) Thirdly the army marched south to meet Duke William of Normandy (Oct 14) (and lost heavily)
Edward the Confessor died in 1066. But he was deceased before Hastings. King Harold II was the king killed by the invading army of William the Conqueror.
The invading army at the Battle of Hastings was the Norman army. It was led by the winner of the battle, William the Conqueror.
