The Anglo-Saxon Invasion in Britain
The first Anglo-Saxons raided the shores of south and east England in the fourth century AD, but they were beaten back by the Romans. At the beginning of the fifth century, the Romans left Britain. They had not trained the British to defend themselves and so the next time the Saxons tried to invade Britain.was during the second half of the fifth century that more and more Anglo-Saxons arrived to take land for themselves. It is for this reason that the time of the Anglo-Saxons is usually thought of as beginning about AD 450.The Anglo-Saxon invasion of Britain in the fifth and sixth centuries is typically a story of slaughter and destruction. This is largely because Gildas, the only known contemporary to write about the events, portrayed it as such, and subsequent writers have taken his interpretation as fact.
