When did the Anglo Saxon start?
The Anglo Saxon was in Germany"Anglo Saxon" refers specifically to two tribes who lived in what is now Germany and Denmark as well from ancient times until the end of the Roman Empire. The Angles came from a place called Angeln which is on the border between Germany and Denmark in the part of Germany that is now called Schleswig-Holstein. The Saxons came from Saxony (also called Sachsen) which is the area of northern Germany around the city of Hamburg. Sometimes people consider the Jutes to be "Anglo-Saxon" as well. The Jutes are from Jutland which is now in Denmark. The Angles and the Saxons were never in the Roman Empire, they lived outside it, and they used to make their money by being paid to be mercenary soldiers for the Romans and also the governments of parts of the former Roman Empire. In 410AD the Romans left Britain and there were many problems. In 449AD the British Government of the time invited some of the Anglo-Saxons to come to Britain to help them fight the Scots and the Irish who kept invading. The Anglo-Saxons period starts from 449AD. In about 480AD the Angles and the Saxons decided they were not going to do what the British government wanted so they revolted and told their friends to come to Britain to steal things and make it their own land. When they invaded Britain there was already people here - Welsh speaking people - who they killed or forced to leave their homes. Some Welsh people who stayed were made into slaves. Eventually the Anglo-Saxons conquered all of what is now called England, but it was divided into at least seven English speaking kingdoms for a long time. These Anglo-Saxon kingdoms are known as the Heptarchy and were Wessex, Essex, Sussex, East Anglia, Kent, Mercia and Northumbria. The period in English History usually considered the Anglo-Saxon Period started from the beginning of the Anglo-Saxon invasion (449AD) and continues until 1066AD which is when the Norman Conquest occurred and England was invaded and conquered by the Normans.

How many days does it take for the moon to move one-fourth of the way around Earth?
At little less than seven, if you reckon by the Moon's alignment with Earth and the stars, and a little more if you reckon with the Earth and the Sun. Consequently, we designate this period a "week" from the Anglo-Saxon "wiek" or turning, because as viewed from Earth, during this time the Moon turns from Full to Last Quarter to New to First Quarter to Full again.
What are the views of Buddhism of the afterlife?
Just as in conventional life on Earth, there are a range of "afterlife" experiences. Basically, there are six possible realms, three lower realms and three higher realms. The lower realms are the hell realm, the hungry ghost realm and the animal realm. The higher realms are the human realm, the jealous god realm and the god realm. All of these realms are subject to karma and rebirth in any of the other realms. Nirvana, though, is not a realm, as such, but an unconditioned spiritual state that is beyond the six realms. One is no longer subject to karma. One has gone beyond karma. This is an inexpressible state which must be realized within oneself to be understood. This is our natural state of awareness once we have realized our original nature. The realm in which we are reborn depends on our past deeds and their effect on our mindstream. This is karma. Escaping the effects of karma is called Enlightenment or Awakening. There are degrees of awakening, but once one has "entered the stream", that is, cut the first three fetters that bind us to karma, if we remain vigilant, we will achieve full Enlightenment in no more than seven rebirths, according the the Pali Canon.
