There are five interesting things i learned about the anglo saxons. First, is that the coins that they used to use were actually from silver. That is really cool cuz now a days you have to buy silver which can be really expensive but the anglo saxons actually used silver for money! Second, British people came like from the anglo saxon. I had no idea that The anglo Saxon had kings and everything. to be honest i didnt know a clue about the anglo saxons. I just thought they were white people.lol. Third, they were from the 960's or earlier dude thats a long time ago. I don't really know a lot about ancient times like those so this was something i just learned a few days ago!!
Something else that i learned about the Anglo Saxon is that they buried jewelry, weapons, gold coins, iron items, enormous 'drinking-horns,' textiles and a finely worked shield. They sound so interesting! Finally, Canterbury Cathedral in Canterbury, Kent, is one of the oldest and most famous Christian structures in England and it is around the Anglo Saxon's time that its the original Saxon Cathedral. The church is still standing today and is a very beautiful church that is a very common site where many people visit.
