Old Saxish, also known as Old Low Theech (Old Low German), is the earliest written kind of Low Saxish, written from the 9th yearhundred until the 12th yearhundred, when it unfolded into Middle Low Theech. It was spoken in the north of Theechland (Germany) by the Saxish folk and the northeastern Netherlands. It is very much akin to Old English-Freesish (Old Freesish, Old English), spoken on the north-western seaboard of Holland, Theechland and Southern Denmark (in bit, taking a share in the Engle-Freesish nosely narrowloud law), and to Old East Low Frankish and Old High Theech. The Ingvaeonish bough is made up of Saxish, English, and Freesish. These leids, along with Netherlandish, are north of the Benrath Line.
Only a few wordings outlast, mostly in christening vows the Saxes had to do at the behest of Karl the Great. The only written wording upheld is Heliand.
