Peter-in-the-Wall,Essex: A simple nave church of the early style c. 650 Brixworth, Northants: monastery founded by Sexwulf c. 800 Barnack, Peterborough: Towered church c. 970 - spire is later Sompting Church, Sussex: A Romanesque style church . c1050

The table 1 summarises the possibilities outlined by Robert Hedges, building on work by Helena Hamerow.[1]}} The number of 250,000 is also suggested by

Development of reflexives ✔ ✔ Rise of progressive ✔ ✔ Loss of external possessor ✔ ✔ Rise of periphrastic do ✔ ✔ Negative comparative particle ✔ Rise of pronoun -en ✔ Merger of /kw-/, /hw-/ at /χw-/ ✔ Rise of it clefts ✔ Rise of sentential answers and tagging ✔ Preservation of /θ ð/ ✔ Loss of front rounded vowels


Table 1:A number of shift features that were selected as representative by Richard Coates, Gary Miller and Raymond Hickey
Features Coates [a] Miller [b] Hickey [c]
Two functionally-distinct ‘to be’ verbs
Northern Subject Rule
Development of reflexives
Rise of progressive
Loss of external possessor
Rise of the periphrastic "do"
Negative comparative particle
Rise of pronoun -en
Merger of /kw-/, /hw-/ and /χw-/
Rise of "it" clefts
Rise of sentential answers and tagging
Preservation of θ and ð
Loss of front rounded vowels

(*)This could be the second phase, with building on a 100 years; a small force of 3000, with a rate of 3% (local wives, mainly men - same rate as modern day Palestine) would have become 38,437 by 540.

History

Settlement legacy

The Anglo-Saxon settlement has had a profound influence on contemporary culture of Britain and elsewhere. Questions of English origin, themes in popular films and even the identity of many people worldwide seem still intrinstically linked to the question of what happened in Britain in the fifth and sixth Centuuries.
