JUTES n.
Jutlanders; one of the Low German tribes, a portion of which settled in Kent, England, in the 5th century.
ANGLO-SAXON n.
The Teutonic people (Angles, Saxons, Jutes) of England, or the English people, collectively, before the Norman Conquest. It is quite correct to call Æthelstan "King of the Anglo-Saxons," but to call this or that subject of Æthelstan "an Anglo-Saxon" is simply nonsense. E. A. Freeman.
