king See also:Vortigern (q.v.)to defend him against the Picts. The See also:place of their landing is said to have been Ebbsfleet in See also:Kent. Its date is not certainly known, 450-455 being given by the See also:English authorities, 428 by the Welsh (see KENT). The settlers of Kent are described by See also:Bede as See also:Jutes (q.v.), and there are traces in Kentish See also:custom of See also:differences from the other Anglo-Saxon kingdoms. Hengest and Horsa were at first given the See also:island of See also:Thanet as a See also:home, but soon' quarrelled with their British See also:allies, and gradually possessed themselves of what became the See also:kingdom of Kent. In 455 the Saxon See also:Chronicle records a See also:battle between Hengest and Horsa and Vortigern at a place called Aegaels threp, in which Horsa
was slain. Thenceforward Hengest reigned in Kent, together with his son Aesc (See also:Oise). Both the Saxon Chronicle and the Historia Brittonum See also:record three subsequent battles, though the two authorities disagree as to their issue. There is no doubt, however, that the See also:net result was the See also:expulsion of the Britons from Kent. According to the Chronicle, which probably derived its See also:information from a lost See also:list of Kentish See also:kings, Hengest died in 488, while his son Aesc continued to reign until 512.
