Did 10th century people in Wessex view themselves as a subset of Saxons or a subset of the greater Anglo-Saxon culture?
hi! you'll find some info in these earlier posts
In Anglo-Saxon England, would people distinguish between Angles, Saxons and Jutes? When did this distinction disappear?
Why is England named after Angles and not after Saxons?
Why is it England and not Saxland?
When did people of Celtic, Saxon, Viking, Jute descent start to consider themselves as one English people?
Why haves the Jutes been forgotten in the Anglo Saxon period of British history?
