Jyder var et germansk folkeslag i Jylland.[1][2]

Historie

Ligesom der findes forskellige måder at afgrænse landskabet Jylland på, findes også forskellige definitioner af folkenavnet jyde. Jyderne beboede Jylland ned til Ejderen, Trenen og Egernførde Fjord[kilde mangler]. Men efter dannelsen af Hertugdømmet Slesvig har ordet ikke altid indbefattet befolkningen syd for Kongeåen (slesvigerne eller sønderjyderne). Men den sønderjyske dialekt har dog mere til fælles med de nørrejyske dialekter end med dialekterne på øerne.[kilde mangler]

Jyderne som medgrundlæggere af den angelsaksiske civilisation

Da jorden på den jyske halvø og syd herfor omkring år 500 var udpint og hederne bredte sig, og landet derfor ikke længere kunne brødføde så mange, udvandrede jyder sammen med anglere og saksere til Britannien, hvor de lagde grunden til den angelsaksiske civilisation.[1]

Jutland and the Jutland Peninsula

Red: Commonly defined as Jutland today, including the area north of the Limfjord and minor islands
Pink: The islands of Læsø, Anholt, Samsø and Als are usually attributed to Jutland as well
Brown: South Slesvig/Schleswig in the German state of Schleswig-Holstein, historically a part of Jutland
Yellow: Holstein, situated on the Jutland Peninsula, but not in Jutland itself.

The river Kongeå is the historical border between Northern and Southern Jutland (Slesvig). The river Eider is the historical southern border of Jutland (and formerly Denmark), and between Slesvig and Holstein. The city of Rendsburg and the island of Helgoland are sometimes regarded as Slesvig, sometimes not. The Jutland Peninsula as a geographic term has no fixed southern border, but at its furthest it would stretch to the river Elbe. Hamburg, however, is not a part of Holstein, and Lübeck was not a part of Holstein until the 20th century. The Jutland Peninsula may also be called the Cimbrian Peninsula, Jutland-Holstein or Jutland-Schleswig-Holstein.
