On the Resting-Places of the Saints is a heading given to two early medieval pieces of writing, also known as Þá hálgan and the Secgan, which exist in various manuscript forms in both Old English and Latin, the earliest surviving manuscripts of which date to the mid-11th century. Secgan is so named from its Old English incipit, Secgan be þam Godes sanctum þe on Engla lande aerost reston "Tale of God's saints who first rested in England"), and is a list of fifty places which had shrines and remains of Anglo-Saxon saints.

Þá hálgan (pronounced thar halgan) is a version of the so-called Kentish Royal Legend (its incipit Her cyð ymbe þa halgan þe on Angelcynne restað "Here [follows] a relation on the saints who rest in the English nation") is a heading which appears to be for both texts, as the Kentish legend, which comes first, is actually an account of how various members of the royal family of Kent, descendants of Æthelberht of Kent, founded monasteries and came to be regarded as saints. As such it is closer to other hagiographical texts than to the list of burial sites that follows it. The texts describe people living from the 7th to 10th centuries, and they exist in both Old English and Latin versions, but both have their earliest known manuscripts dating from the 11th century.

  • On the Resting-Places of the Saints (letteralmente: "Circa i luoghi di sepoltura dei santi") è il titolo dato all'insieme di due testi medievali, conosciuti anche come Þá hálgan e Secgan, che ci sono pervenuti in forma di manoscritti scritti in latino e inglese antico, i più antichi dei quali risalgono alla metà dell'undicesimo secolo. Il Secgan è così chiamato poiché nel suo incipit in inglese antico si legge: "Secgan be þam Godes sanctum þe on Engla lande aerost reston" (letteralmente: "Il racconto dei santi di Dio che per primi furono sepolti in Inghilterra") ed è di fatto un elenco di cinquanta luoghi in cui sono presenti santuari e reliquie di santi anglosassoni. Il Þá hálgan (pronunciato "thar halgan") è una versione della cosiddetta Kentish Royal Legend, il suo incipit, ossia: "Her cyð ymbe þa halgan þe on Angelcynne restað" (letteralmente: "Qui [segue] una relazione sui santi che riposano in Inghilterra"), sembra infatti essere comune per i due testi, essendo di fatto la Leggenda reale del Kent un racconto riguardante la discendenza del re del Kent Etelberto I, che contava un gran numero di santi e fondatori di monasteri.
