I love The New Forest Hampshire which is the next county over from where I live in Dorset: The Jutes were the last tribe in England to suffer forced conversion to xtianity. The Jutes on the Isle of Wight and Hampshire were invaded 3 times, mostly wiped out and replaced with colonists from Wessex and Mercia because they refused to convert.
Today Hampshire has, especially in the New Forest, the biggest concentration in England of place names for streams, hills, villages and woodlands etc that are named after the native Gods of the English. This shows us how committed the Jutes were to the Gods and how place names can be useful when studying the culture of our ancestors. There is a bog named after the God Woden, Hills named after a great Ash Tree, a small lake named after Woden that is now only a stream and a village named after the Goddess Frigga as a few examples from the top of my head. The old name for what is now called the New Forest was Forest of 'Ytene', which means 'The Forest of the Jutes'.
