This is the time between a legendary myth, King Arthur, and the legendary King Alfred the Great. It is the time of the great (and almost only) historian of that time,
Bede of Northumbria. This will be fascinating to follow as it opens more study of this time. On a bicycle trip to England in the late 90s it became impressed upon me on how dense history clings to every inch of England. I stood at Stonehenge at dawn and thought of all of those who have stood there over the past millenniaS!
