The Anglo-Saxons practiced a form of paganism before converting to Christianity, believing in a pantheon of gods and goddesses such as Woden, Thunor, and Frigg. Their worldview was heavily influenced by fate, or "wyrd," which they believed dictated the course of their lives. After the arrival of Christianity, many Anglo-Saxons adopted Christian beliefs, integrating them with existing traditions. This synthesis is reflected in their literature, art, and cultural practices.
