Northumberland got its name from its location "north of the River Tyne" and its historical association with the Anglo-Saxon kingdom of Northumbria. The term "Northumberland" literally means "the land north of the Humber," with "Humber" referring to the Humber River, which historically marked the boundary of the kingdom. The county has a rich history influenced by Roman, Anglo-Saxon, and Viking settlements, further shaping its identity.
