I wonder if the old Anglo-Saxons used the same beheading technique as latter-day Mohammedan jihadists do.

According to the Independent (http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/this-britain/day-the-vikings-got-their-comeuppance-1920111.html), archaeologists opine that they got their heads chopped off with swords, while facing their executioners.
