Early British Kingdoms



Looking for information on Early British Kingdoms from about 400 to 1000 AD? You will find a wealth of information at http://www.earlybritishkingdoms.com/. There are six main sections:
  • Kingdoms
  • Royalty
  • Arthur
  • Archaeology
  • Saints
  • Adversaries
Under Kingdoms, you will find Chronologies, Lists of various kinds (mostly kings) and some amazing Maps. Royalty hosts background information on assorted kings, queens, princesses and princes. The Arthur section needs a post all to itself, there is so much information there. Archaeology includes information on many historically signifcant site. For example, this page on South Cadbury Castle, one popular candidate for the location of Camelot, contains a photo and a map as well as interesting detaiils on the tradition, the dig and possible interpretations. Saints contains background on an exhaustive list of saints in the EBK. And Adversaries gives additional information on the Saxons.

Definitely a site to bookmark when you plan to cover this very interesting period of European history.
