Category:Diggers
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Diggers were a group of Protestant radicals, sometimes seen as forerunners to modern anarchism, and also associated with agrarian socialism and Georgism. Gerrard Winstanley's followers were known as True Levellers in 1649 and later became known as Diggers, because of their attempts to farm on common land.
