4-The Age of the Saints

C. L. Matthews amateur archaeologist
The first half of the sixth century-a period of peace, following the British victory at Badon-is one of the darkest periods of the Dark Ages, and, in south-eastern Britain, there is neither written nor archaeological evidence to tell us what was happening.
For the north-west of Britain, however, Welsh records have preserved a number of Saints' lives, which combine with the accounts of the contemporary writer Gildas to give a vivid picture of the Celtic Christianity of the period, and of the monastic saints who went from South Wales to convert Southern Ireland, Cornwall, and Btittany to a life of piety, learning, and hard work.
The evidence on which this knowledge is based is literary rather than archaeological, hut Professor Bowen shows what geography and a knowledge of personal and place names have to contribute to it. Speakers also discuss the nature of the Celtic Christianity and its possible connection with the Eastern Mediterranean.
