Ad Gefrin

"Place of the Hill of the goats"


or Yeavering as it is known today, is the best-known excavated example of a royal centre of the kings of Northumbria;
at the foot of the Iron Age hill fort Yeavering bell.

For many years Ad Gefrin was a meeting point for the high and mighty with the great palace/hall at the centre.
It is here in the year 627 King Edwin asked his savior (his life was literally saved) the missionary Paulinus
to preach Christianity to the population. Paulinus spends 36 days baptising the locals in the nearby River Glen.

From about 627 onwards, Edwin was the most powerful king among the Anglo-Saxons, ruling Bernicia,
Deira and much of eastern Mercia, the Isle of Man and Anglesey: The imperium.
King Edwin defeats his (supposed) foster-brother Cadwallon who goes into exile, leaving King Edwin supreme - a Brytenwalda

But time is running out for both King Edwin and Ad Gefrin.
Cadwallon has joined pagan King Penda and in 632-33 they meet in a battle: the Northumbrians under Edwin on one side
and an alliance of the Welsh of Gwynedd under Cadwallon and the Mercians under King Penda on the other.

King Edwin is killed leaving Northumbria divided, and in 633 archaeology shows Ad Gefrin burned to the ground.
It was later rebuilt but burned again. In time, the power base of the Anglo-Saxon kings was moved eastwards
to the Milfield Plain where another township was built, known as Maelmin.

But that is, as they say, "another story"...

1. Great hall: also known as the 'royal palace'.

2. Great Enclosure: No traces of buildings were found inside, and it was probably used for keeping in livestock and keeping out wild animals.
In times of war it might have been used as refuge for the population.

3. Totem & graves: an interesting combination of a pagan totem pole and Christian crosses were found on a small burial mound.
Old and new beliefs might well have coexisted to ease the transition to Christianity.

4. An amphitheater: Most likely not used for the plays of Shakespeare's grand-grand-grand-grand... father; but for preaching the new religion,
and perhaps also for important announcements by the king to his court, or the surrounding population.

5. Temple complex: a series of buildings different from the buildings surrounding the great hall; such as sunken houses - or 'Grubenhaus'.
Many animal bones were found and it could well be an area for ritual activities.

6. River Glen in which Paulinus baptised the local population. The river has changed its course through time
and I've just imagined it closer so it could be in the scene  :smile:

Besieging Ad Gefrin



 
Beautiful. Yeavering is one of my favourite places to visit. Even though there's nothing left of this great palace, the whole place has a beautiful bleak feeling to it. It's a really wild place.

Really nice work on this by the way. Looks amazing. You should contact Kolba and see if he wants this and Bebbanburh and some of the Pictish forts for Song of Taliesin, assuming you'd be willing?
 
Thanks. Yeavering is so well excavated that I could replicate it quite nicely. I've mostly had to use my imagination  :smile:

Of course, but these scenes are made with Warband and they're not backwards compatible with M&B (at least that I know of).
There are many new models in Warband and it gives me many more possibilities for making scenes.

Grantebrycge


Known today as Cambridge. The Romans were quick to see the strategic importance of the place.
Castle Hill had been occupied long before the Romans came and it was an ideal place to cross the River Gran (known today as Cam);
as well as setting up an outpost to defend the river. They called it Duroliponte (bridge over water).

When the Romans left the Saxons took over the place, but by the 7th. century the town had declined severely, as usual with Roman settlements.
We can perhaps imagine the Saxons to have built their own town with their own houses and farming in a nearby area.
