Tacitus describes the "Anglii" as one of the more remote Suebic tribes compared to the Semnones and Langobardi, who lived on the Elbe and were better known to the Romans.
Tacitus kirjeldab "Anglii" kui ühte kõige kaugemat sueebide hõimu võrreldes semnoonide ja langobardidega, kes elasid Elbel ja olid roomlastele paremini tuntud.
