In 477, says the English Chronicle written down, it must be remembered, from traditional sources, four centuries later, at the court of Alfred the West Saxon in 477, Ælle and his three sons, Cymen, Wlencing, and Cissa, came to Britain in three ships, and landed at the stow that is cleped Cymenes-ora.
It is vraisemblable enough that the little strip of very low coast between Hayling Island and the Arun may have been the first original South Saxon colony. Nor is it by any means impossible that the names of Keynor and Chichester Cymenes-ora and Cissanceaster may still enshrine the memory of two among the old South Saxon freebooters.
