The Angles, Saxons and Jutes were a very closely related group of Germanic tribes who lived adjacent to each other on the Jutland peninsular (modern Denmark) and north west Germany. Their languages, cultures and beliefs were virtually inseparable and they shared both common forefathers and a tribal and clan heritage. Intermarriage between these closely related tribes was not unusual (it was common) nor was warfare. These tribes would come together to invade the former Roman Province of Britain and carve out a homeland. They would name this homeland after the confederate tribal identity name they gave themselves, ‘Anglecynn’ (English people/folk/kin) the land came to be called England, land of the English/English-land. They would develop a unique English civilisation, and in the centuries to come their descendants would change the face of world.
These our forefathers, also shared similar relationships with the Danes (who also lived adjacent to them on the Jutland peninsular). So our forefathers came from a small area of North West Europe. The Britons were still calling the English Germans’ in the 9th century.. Today many of our neighbours have taken to calling us this again!

The tribes of the Jutland Peninsular and Baltic Scandinavia who lived nearest the Ocean were known collectively as the 'Ingaevones' (This included the Angles, Jutes and Saxons) they were descended from Ing, who was one of the three sons of Mannus. Mannus was said to be the son of their earth-born god called Tuisto, who had sprung up from the Earth.

The Angles (who called themselves Engle) came from the area of Angel/Angeln (on the Baltic coast) of todays Schleswig-Holstein area of Germany/Denmark (Jutland Peninsular) The Angles would found Northumbria, Mercia and most of East Anglia. The Angles were the largest of the three tribes, and their name would eventually be adopted by the other tribes of the new homeland. Though at the same time, all three tribes/peoples held on to their own tribal names and loyalties when dealing in their own interests
The Saxons took their name from their favoured knife called the 'seax'. A knife that came in various lengths, used for everyday tasks such as hunting and of course war. The Saxons warriors were noted for the use of their ‘broke back’ type of seax of which there were one and two handed types. The English were still wearing and using the seax in the early middle ages. The Saxons would found most of southern England.
The Jutes came from the Northern part of the Jutland peninsular, North of the Angles and Saxons. They would found modern Kent, Hampshire and settle the Isle of Wight. Jutes may have once been called Geats.
