Some groups are trying to keep Anglo-Saxon culture and history alive. One such group is Ša-Engliscan-GesiŽas (The English Companions), a historical society that aims to promote interest in English pre-Norman history and culture. They have a web site at http://www.kami.demon.co.uk/gesithas/.
Another group is the Angelseaxisce Ealdriht, who have a huge amount of information on Heathenry available at their web site: http://heathengyldas.com/ealdriht/. Their aim is to practice the pre-Christian religion of the Anglo-Saxons as they practised it, and to live by their values.

What are the graphics of?
The background shows the Anglo-Saxon god of war, frenzy, ecstasy and poetry, Wodan (Odin), on his eight-legged horse Sleipnir.
The strange text at the top of the page is the title of the page in Old English, and has been rendered using the Anglo-Saxon runes. The modern English word underneath is usually the modern equivalent, but sometimes, when I cannot find a suitable modern word, I have used something different.
The rotating icon is Thunor's (Thor's) Hammer.
