    Default You didn't fix the place-names!

    You guys didn't fix the English place-names I researched for you:

    Saxons –

    Correct spelling is Cræganford (Ekwall).
    Correct spelling is Andred (no final -e). (Ekwall).
    Correct spelling is Ægelesford (Ekwall).

    Jutes –

    Jutish capital:
    Correct form, earliest attested, is Hrofaescaestre (c. 730) (Ekwall).
    Correct form is Cantwaraburg (754) (Ekwall).
    Correct form is Ypwines fléot (Ekwall).

    Ekwall = The Concise Oxford Dictionary of English Place-Names. E. Ekwall. Oxford, 1960.

    I can see a few of the rewrites/proofings I did for the units text didn't make it in either.
