, writes Barry Shurlock DURING the last hundred years many small countries have experienced the withdrawal of a colonial power. More often than not, a long period of chaos is endured before order is regained. More than 1,500 years ago Hampshire was in a similar situation, as the Romans left and Saxons took their place. The first coherent snapshot of the organisation of the country is the Domesday Book. It was compiled nearly 700 years after the collapse of the Roman Empire and a generation after the Norman Conquest.

There are no prizes for places such as Portsmouth, Hedge End, Freshwater, Weston, and Easton – and Christmas Island, by the way, got its name in 1643, when a captain of the East India Company spotted it on Christmas Day with his telescope. Also, there may be rational explanations for the several houses named Christmas Cottage in the county – at Odiham, Bishop s Sutton and Freefolk – as well as Christmas Hill in South Wonston. ....
ALTHOUGH many resist the idea that hard copy print products – call them books! - are on the way out, there are obvious advantages with digital files. Whereas, for example, sourcing Anglo-Saxon charters once required a dusty encounter in an academic library, much can now be achieved online from the ‘electronic Sawyer’, a version of Peter Sawyer’s annotated list and bibliography, hosted at the Centre for Computing in the Humanities at King’s College, London. The charters themselves, however, are published in a mammoth 30-volume operation by Oxford University Press. Sean Miller’s Charters of the New Minster (later Hyde Abbey) has been in print since 2001 and covers 34 pre-Conquest documents, including the will of Alfred the Great. ....
