| dbo:abstract | The Battle of Wippedesfleot was a battle in 466 between the Anglo-Saxons (or Jutes), led by Hengest, and the Britons. It is described in the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle thus: 465: Her Hengest 7 Æsc gefuhton uuiþ Walas neah Wippedesfleote 7 þær .xii. wilisce aldormenn ofslogon, 7 hiera þegn an þær wearþ ofslægen, þam wæs noma Wipped.465: Here Hengest and Æsc fought together against Welsh (= Britons) near Wippedesfleot and there slew 12 Welsh leaders, and one of their thanes was slain, whose name was Wipped. This battle is said to have resulted in much bloodshed and slaughter on both sides, to the extent that hostilities abated for a while thereafter. Some historians believe in a Saxon victory, but that is not what is mentioned in the text. The limited number of casualties is an indication that the battle was a small one. The number of warriors involved must not have reached 200 men. Wippedesfleot is thought to be Ebbsfleet in Kent, near Ramsgate. Its location made the author of the Historia Brittonum think that all Saxons had now been driven out of Britain. Wippedes is possibly a corruption of Latin oppidis in reference to the creek's position by the twin forts of Rutupiæ and Rutupiæ alteræ (Regulbium). Ramsgate is the main place upon the former Island of Thanet, "which was given to the Saxons by Vortigern". It was the very place where, according to the Historia Brittonum, the Saxons first landed. Gildas does not mention the battle. (en) La batalla de Wippedesfleot fue una batalla de 466 entre los anglosajones (o jutos), dirigidos por Hengest, y los britanos. Se describe en la Crónica anglosajona así: 465: Her Henᵹest 7 Æsc ᵹefuhton uuiþ Ƿalas neah Ƿippedesfleote 7 þær .xii. ƿilisce aldormenn ofsloᵹon, 7 hiera þeᵹn an þær ƿearþ ofslæᵹen, þam ƿæs noma Ƿipped.465: Aquí Hengest y Oisc lucharon juntos contra los galeses (= britanos) cerca de Wippedesfleot y allí dieron muerte a 12 caudillos galeses, y uno de sus thanes fue asesinado, cuyo nombre era Wipped. Se dice que esta batalla acabó en derramamiento de sangre y masacre para los dos lados, hasta el punto de que después las hostilidades cesaron por un tiempo. Algunos historiadores creen en una victoria sajona, pero eso no se menciona en el texto. El limitado número de bajas es indicativo de que la batalla fue de pequeño tamaño. El número de guerreros involucrados no debe haber alcanzado los 200. Se piensa que Wippedesfleot es en Kent, cerca de Ramsgate. Su localización hizo pensar al autor de la Historia Brittonum que todos los sajones habían sido ya expulsados de Gran Bretaña. Ramsgate es el lugar principal de la entonces península de Thanet, «que fue dada a los sajones por Vortigern». Fue de hecho el sitio donde, según la Historia Brittonum, los sajones desembarcaron primero. Gildas no menciona la batalla. (es) |
