The article states The name of the hundred, first recorded in 1196, is simply the Latin for "of the Danes", since the hundred lay within the Danelaw, the southern boundaries of both being formed by the River Lea. Since the River Lea lies to the east and north of Dacorum then this contradicts itself. I believe it meant the last Saxon land before the Danelaw. A sort of frontier zone. I will try to verify this.
