England 1

-History Prehistory or antiquity

The earliest known evidence of human presence in

the area now known as England was that ofHomo

antecessor, dating to approximately 780,000 years

ago. The oldest proto-human bones discovered in

England date from 500,000 years ago. Modern

humans are known to have first inhabited the area

during the Upper Paleolithic period, though

permanent settlements were only established within

the last 6,000 years.

Middle Ages

Roman military withdrawals left Britain open to

invasion by pagan, seafaring warriors from north-

western continental Europe, chiefly

the Angles, Saxonsand Jutes who had long raided

the coasts of the Roman province and began to

settle, initially in the eastern part of the country. Their

advance was contained for some decades after the

Britons' victory at the Battle of Mount Badon, but

subsequently resumed, over-running the fertile

lowlands of Britain and reducing the area

under Brythonic control to a series of separate

enclaves in the more rugged country to the west by

the end of the 6th century. Contemporary textsdescribing this period are extremely scarce, giving

rise to its description as a Dark Age.

Early modern

During the Tudor period, the Renaissance reached

England through Italian courtiers, who reintroducedartistic, educational and scholarly debate from

classical antiquity. During this time England began to

develop naval skills, and exploration to the West

intensified.

-Culture

England Culture has come along way and hasdeveloped over several millennia, to recent

movements such as Brit Art and now

encompasses a variety of forms which include

photography, painting, sculpture and

performance art. Cuisines of England also

influence the England culture to a great extent.

English folklore that has evolved in England

over a number of centuries is yet another

aspect that influences the Culture of England.

England thrives with folklore in all forms such as

the traditional semi-mystical Arthurian legends

and semi-historical Robin Hood tales, tocontemporary urban myths and facets of crypto

zoology.
