Angle

Member of the Germanic tribe that occupied the Schleswig‐Holstein district of North Germany known as Angeln. The Angles, or Angli, invaded Britain after the Roman withdrawal in the 5th century and settled in East Anglia, Mercia, and Northumbria. The name ‘England’ (Angleland) is derived from this tribe. See Anglo‐Saxon.
