Choose an option William I the Conqueror William II Rufus Henry I Beauclerc Stephen Detail of an image of William I by George Vertue (1648-1756) The Royal Collection © 2003, Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II WILLIAM I 'THE CONQUEROR' (r. 1066-1087) Born around 1028, William was the illegitimate son of Duke Robert I of Normandy, and Herleve (also known as Arlette), daughter of a tanner in Falaise. Known as 'William the Bastard' to his contemporaries, his illegitimacy shaped his career when he was young. On his father's death in 1035, William was recognised by his family as the heir - an exception to the general rule that illegitimacy barred succession. His great uncle looked after the Duchy during William's minority, and his overlord, King Henry I of France, knighted him at the age of 15. From 1047 onwards, William successfully dealt with rebellion inside Normandy involving his kinsmen and threats from neighbouring nobles, including attempted invasions by his former ally King Henry I of France in 1054 (the French forces were defeated at the Battle of Mortemer) and 1057. William's military successes and reputation helped him to negotiate his marriage to Mathilda, daughter of Count Baldwin V of Flanders. At the time of his invasion of England, William was a very experienced and ruthless military commander, ruler and administrator who had unified Normandy and inspired fear and respect outside his duchy. William's claim to the English throne was based on his assertion that, in 1051, Edward the Confessor had promised him the throne (he was a distant cousin) and that Harold II - having sworn in 1064 to uphold William's right to succeed to that throne - was therefore a usurper. Furthermore, William had the support of Emperor Henry IV and papal approval. William took seven months to prepare his invasion force, using some 600 transport ships to carry around 7,000 men (including 2,000-3,000 cavalry) across the Channel. On 28 September 1066, with a favourable wind, William landed unopposed at Pevensey and, within a few days, raised fortifications at Hastings. Having defeated an earlier invasion by the King of Norway at the Battle of Stamford Bridge near York in late September, Harold undertook a forced march south, covering 250 miles in some nine days to meet the new threat, gathering inexperienced reinforcements to replenish his exhausted veterans as he marched.

History of Bradgate Go straight to : The Greys of Groby Two Queens of England Early years The history of the Bradgate area is long and complex. Like many parts of England, successive waves of invaders colonised the area from the Celtic Iron Age people through Romans, Saxons and Danes to the Norman aristocracy who came with William the Conqueror. The Medieval period saw several powerful families leave their mark on Bradgate. This is the time when Bradgate rose above rural tranquillity to become the home of two Queens of England and the backdrop to events of national importance. The earliest known settlement in Bradgate is the Iron Age Bury Camp at Ratby, 3000 years old. During the Roman period 1600 to 1950 years ago, the city of Leicester 6 miles (10 km) from Bradgate was the regional capital for the Midlands area of Britain. The Roman name for Leicester was Ratae Corieltauvorum. It is possible that Ratby takes its name from Ratae. After the Roman occupation, Saxons lived in the Bradgate area. Aerial photographs show traces of Saxon buildings near the Rothley Brook in Ratby, but little else remains. There may have been a Saxon church in Ratby. A local legend describes how the Devil threw the timbers of Ratby church into the Brook! During the ninth century AD, the Leicester area came under the control of the Danes who were colonising England from the East. Leicester became one of the 'Five Boroughs' of the Danish Midlands, along with Derby, Nottingham, Stamford and Lincoln. The names Ratby and Groby date from this time, and show the typical 'by' suffix which is Danish for town or settlement.

iWon Travel Europe England Powered by HISTORY and CULTURE History Culture History The first-known inhabitants of England were small bands of hunters, but Stone Age immigrants arrived around 4000 BC and farmed the chalk hills of Salisbury Plain, constructing the mysterious stone circles at Stonehenge and Avebury. They were followed by the Bronze Age Celts from Central Europe who began arriving in 800 BC, bringing the Gaelic and Brythonic languages (the former is still spoken in Scotland, the latter in Wales). The Romans invaded in 43 AD and took only seven years to quell resistance and control most of England. The Scottish and Welsh tribes were more of a problem, resulting in the building of Hadrian's Wall across northern England to keep out the marauding Scots. The Romans brought stability, nice and straight paved roads and Christianity; in return, the Brits gave the Romans a headache and a dent in the empire's expense account. The Romans were never defeated, they just sort of faded away around 410 AD as their empire declined. Tribes of heathen Angles, Jutes and Saxons began to move into the vacuum, absorbing the Celts, and local fiefdoms developed. By the 7th century, these fiefdoms had grown into a series of Anglo-Saxon kingdoms which had come to collectively think of themselves as English. By the mid-9th century, Vikings had invaded northern Scotland, Cumbria and Lancashire and the Danes were making inroads into eastern England. By 871, only Wessex - the half-Saxon, half-Celtic country south of the Thames - was under English control. At this low point, the English managed to neutralise the Vikings' military superiority and began a process of assimilation.

29. Short History Of Armour And Weapons 1066 and defeated the Saxons at the battle of hastings. foot soldier based on theirfunction in battle, and 2 stages of development and/or regional differences http://www.nps.gov/colo/Jthanout/HisArmur.html

HISTORY OF ARMOUR AND WEAPONS RELEVANT TO JAMESTOWN The first known use of armour was by the Egyptians (1500 B.C.) The armour was a cloth, shirtlike garment overlapped with bronze scales or plates sewn to it. The armour was very heavy, causing this style of protection to be short-lived. The Assyrians (900-600 B.C.) developed lamellar armour; small rectangular plates or lames were sewn to a garment in parallel rows. This style of armour was used into the 16th c. A.D. The Assyrians also used bronze helmets, shields and arms. In 8th c. B.C., Greek technology refined armour by fashioning bronze plates to fit over distinct parts of the body, i.e., following the musculature of the body part it was protecting. Their armour was the bronze breastplate and backplate, termed the cuirass, greaves, which protected the shins, and brass helmets. The Greeks used a massive shield called an argive which covered the body from chin to knee. Rome was founded in 753 B.C., but 500 years of warfare were needed for Rome to gain dominance of the Italian peninsula. The Romans borrowed heavily from the Greeks using their version of the argive (scutum), greaves, helmets and cuirass. By the 3rd c. B.C., Romans developed a cuirass of linen covered with bronze lames and a shirt of interlocking metal rings called mail. It is believed mail was a Celtic invention. (Celts were ancient people of western and central Europe including Britons and Gauls.) Mail, or chainmail, was made by winding wire tightly around an iron rod, cutting the wire into rings, and interlocking the rings together by soldering or riveting each individual ring closed. A mail shirt weighed between 14 to 30 pounds.

at Eccleshill and Clayton-le-Moors (Home Page) Events in the Blackburn region of Lancashire County, including the Grimshaw locations in Eccleshill and Clayton-le-Moors, reflect the history of England, which is characterized by a series of invasions from the European mainland to the east. Regional Historical Context Grimshaw History at Eccleshill Grimshaw History at Clayton-le-Moors Roman Catholic Roots of Grimshaws ... Figure: St. Mary's Catholic Cemetery on Clayton-le-Moors The Context: Regional History of Lancashire County The Blackburn area was occupied by Brigantes prior to the initial Roman invasion by Julius Caesar in 55 B.C. Permanent Roman occupation occurred when the emperor Claudius sent an army to Britain in A.D. 43. Ribchester, which is located seven or eight miles northwest of Grimshaw and Clayton-le-Moors, was a Roman fort that dates from about A.D. 79 . The Roman Road, which passes within a few hundred yards west of Grimshaw in Eccleshill, led from Manchester to Ribchester during the Roman occupation. (With careful observation, Roman Road can be seen near the Grimshaw location on the Ordnance Survey map .) The Roman garrison was pulled out of Ribchester toward the end of the 300s. After the Roman withdrawal, the inhabitants that remained behind, the Britons, were overrun by the Angles and Saxons from the Continent, mostly from between the Rhine and Denmark. Christianity arrived in England during this period, from A.D. 350 to 500. The Anglo-Saxon invasion apparently included the Lancashire area.

Shrewsbury Town Medieval Shrewsbury is situated on an area of land that is easily defendable due to its being almost totally surrounded by a river ( the river Severn ). It is because of this natural defence that Shrewsbsury was born. The first written evidence that refers to Shrewsbury dates back to 901, but there had been an earlier British settlement called Pengwern which was destroyed by the Saxons in the 6 th century. In the 7 th century an area that included Shrewsbury was claimed by Penda of Mercia but the area known as Mercia was separated from the rest of that area in 829 by Edward the Elder, ruler of Wessex. Later in that century, the Danes ( Vikings ) briefly conquered the area but Edward the Elder took it back in around 880. The 901 reference called Shrewsbury ‘Scrobbesbyrig’ which indicates that it was then a fortified settlement with ‘Scrobbes’ most likely referring to a scrub covered hill, and ‘bryig’ suggesting the presence of fortifications. When Edward the Elder ( King Alfred the Great’s son ) re-took the area which incorporated Scrobbesbyrig, it was ‘upgraded’ to the status of ‘burh’ which was the name given to the regional defence centres. A network of ‘burhs’ was set up around England to make it more secure from invaders such as the Vikings. In the early 10th century, when tribal divisions of the West Midlands were being done away with, a new system of ‘shires’ was implemented. Among the new ‘shires’ was ‘Shropshire’ which was named after its leading town ‘Shrewsbury’.

From British to European to American and World history, to organizations, newsgroups, mailing lists and indices, we have sifted through the many history web pages available on the Internet. One of the wonderful facets (and one of its drawbacks) of the World Wide Web is that anyone can create a web page. Mirroring this, the world wide web has attracted both professional and amateur historians, who maintain web sites either as part of a grant-funded project, as a professional endeavor, or simply as a hobby. Some of those pages are great, others are not worth visiting. So, then, what is the purpose of this site? Is it a collection of links, like those that exist on so many other pages on the 'net? Well, yes and no. It is a collection of links in the sense that you will find dozens and dozens of links to history sites all over the world. However, the collection you'll find here is not intended to be comprehensive, nor, in fact, does it contain the most popular history web sites around. Instead you'll find here some of the best web pages out there.
