The Anglo-Saxons primarily drank ale, which was a staple beverage made from barley and water, often flavored with herbs. They also consumed mead, a honey-based alcoholic drink, and wine, although the latter was less common and typically imported. Additionally, they drank milk and water, with milk being more prevalent in rural areas. Overall, their drinking habits reflected both social customs and the agricultural practices of the time.
Yup! They fought against them hard!
The Anglo-Saxon period in England is generally considered to have ended in 1066 with the Norman Conquest, marked by the Battle of Hastings. This pivotal event led to the fall of the Anglo-Saxon monarchy and the establishment of Norman rule under William the Conqueror. The cultural and political landscape of England underwent significant changes as a result, transitioning from Anglo-Saxon traditions to Norman influences.
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.

Anglo-Saxons valued virtues such as bravery in battle, loyalty to one's lord, generosity in gift-giving, and a strong sense of communal responsibility. These qualities were foundational to their societal structure and were highly praised in their literature and cultural practices.
