HAIL CAESAR Saxon Ceorls – Boxed Set

Vojnici ratnih anglosaksonskih kraljevstava bili su česti prizor na Britanskim otocima od 5. do 11. stoljeća.

Ceorli (također napisani Churlsi) bili su slobodni seljaci koji su osnovali društvo u anglosaksonskoj Engleskoj.

Njihov slobodni status obilježio je njihovo pravo na oružje, vojnu službu u vojsci, prisustvo lokalnih sudova i plaćanje pristojbi izravno kralju.

Neoklopljeni i naoružani kopljima, mačevima i sjekirom, Ceorls su se okupljali pod standardima zmaja na poziv gospodara na oružje.

Armies of the warring Anglo-Saxon kingdoms were a common sight on the British Isles from 5th to 11th Century.

Ceorls (also spelt Churls) were free peasants who formed the basis of society in Anglo-Saxon England.

Their free status was marked by their right to bear arms, military service in the fyrd (army), attendance at local courts, and payment of dues directly to the king.

Unarmoured and armed with spears, swords and axes, Ceorls rallied under the dragon standards at their lord’s call to arms.
