Horsa: The Legendary Figure of Early Anglo-Saxon England

Horsa is a semi-legendary figure in early Anglo-Saxon history, often mentioned alongside his brother Hengist as one of the leaders of the first Germanic settlers (Jutes, Angles, and Saxons) who arrived in Britain in the 5th century. Here are the key points about Horsa:


Historical Sources

  • Bede the Venerable (672–735 AD) mentions in his Ecclesiastical History of the English People (Historia ecclesiastica gentis Anglorum) that Hengist and Horsa were invited by the British king Vortigern to help defend against the Picts.
  • The Anglo-Saxon Chronicle (9th century) records that Hengist and Horsa landed in Ebbsfleet (Kent) in 449 AD and later fought against the Britons. Horsa was killed in the Battle of Aylesford (Kent) in 455 AD.

Stronghold Terrain prints these miniatures as an official licensee of Medbury Miniatures.
