Hengist and Horsa

Hengist e Horsa

Hengist (or Hengest) and Horsa (or Hors) are figures of the British legend, whose records speak of two Germanic brothers, who led the armies of the Angles, Saxons and Jutes for the conquest of the first territories in England in the fifth century. Hengist, who brought his son (sources vary as to this information), is traditionally listed as one of the founders of the Kingdom of Kent. Hengist and Horsa are found in the Ecclesiastical History of the English People, written by Bede in the eighth century; in Historia Brittonum, written by Nênio in the 9th century, and in the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle compiled at the end of the 9th century. Godfrey of Monmouth talks about the two brothers in his work of the twelfth century, in the Historia Regum Britanniae. They were also cited in later works. According to these sources, Hengist and Horsa arrived in Britain as mercenaries of Vortigerno, king of the Bretons. This event is traditionally known as the beginning of the Anglo-Saxon invasion of Britain. There is no unanimity in the sources whether Hengist was the father or grandfather of Oisc of Kent and Octa of Kent, who succeeded Hengist as king of Kent. Hengist (ou Hengest) e Horsa (ou Hors) são figuras da lenda britânica, cujos registros falam de dois irmãos germânicos, que lideraram os exércitos dos Anglos, Saxões e Jutos para a conquista dos primeiros territórios na Inglaterra no século V. Hengist, que trouxe o seu filho (as fontes variam quanto a essa informação), é tradicionalmente listado como um dos fundadores do Reino de Kent. Hengist e Horsa são encontrados na História Eclesiástica do Povo Inglês, escrito por Beda no século VIII; na Historia Brittonum, escrito por Nênio no século IX, e na Crônica Anglo-Saxônica compilada no final do século IX. Godofredo de Monmouth fala sobre os dois irmãos, em sua obra do século XII, na Historia Regum Britanniae. Eles também foram citados em outras obras posteriores. De acordo com essas fontes, Hengist e Horsa chegaram à Grã-Bretanha como mercenários de Vortigerno, rei dos Bretões. Esse evento é conhecido, tradicionalmente, como o início da invasão Anglo-Saxã na Grã-Bretanha. Não há unanimidade nas fontes se Hengist era pai ou avô de Oisc de Kent e Octa de Kent, cujo os quais sucederam Hengist como rei de Kent.
