	Ceawlin of Wessex
		Ceawlin of Wessex (also spelled "Ceaulin" or "Caelin") is recorded in the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle as being king of the West Saxons, or Wessex from 560 to 591, and named by Bede in his Historia Ecclesiastica Gentis Anglorum as the second Bretwalda.
		He may have been a member of their ruling dynasty; the surviving genealogies of the Wessex royal line all have contradictions, and scholars suspect that these have been altered to support the claims of descent by later rulers.
		We have no other evidence for the identity of Ceawlin's adversary, only the suspicion that his successor Ceolwulf, son of his associate Cutha, might have been involved -- but if that is the case, it is puzzling that would he need until 597 to succeed to the kingship of the West Saxons.

		In this year, Ceawlin and Cutha fought against the British in the place that is named Fethanleag and Cutha was slain.
		By dating Ceawlin's death to the same year Æthelfrith became king of Northumbria, the Chronicler betrays his assumption that the various kings of this early period followed closely upon each other.
		While the entry of 568 suggests that Ceawlin and Ethelbert were contemporaries, this entry should not be taken as proof that Ceawlin died at the same time Æthelfrith became king.

	Ceawlin of Wessex Information
		In this year, Ceawlin and Cutha fought against Æthelbert, sending him in flight to Kent, and two aldermen were slain in Wibbandun, Oslaf and Cnebban.
		More important is the fact that the Anglo-Saxon invaders could now sweep into the Severn valley (as Ceawlin is said to have done several years later) and plunder the inhabitants, while the Celts to the west no longer could as easily penetrate the Cotswolds scarp between Gloucester and Cirencester to return the visit.
		By dating Ceawlin's death to the same year Æthelfrith became king of Bernicia, the Chronicler betrays his assumption that the various kings of this early period followed closely upon each other.

	Shoon's Bloog: Ceawlin
		Ceawlin is known to have regretted not being perfect.
		Ceawlin slaughtered many Britons and burned many towns in a rage, but he ultimately returned to Wessex a broken man. In 592, Ceawlin suffered a massive defeat at the hands of the British and was forced to surrender his imperium over the other Saxon kings.
		Another fl mark on the later years of Ceawlin’s reign is the fact he was always mentioned in the presence of other kings, suggesting that the power of Wessex had sharply declined after the 570s.

	Ethelbert of Kent - Article from FactBug.org - the fast Wikipedia mirror site
		Gregory of Tours, who was a close acquaintance of Queen Ingoberg (the mother of Ethelbert's wife Berthe), twice calls him simply "a man of Kent", indicating that he was not king at the time Gregory's History of the Franks was written, and that Ethelbert more likely became king closer to 590.
		The Anglo-Saxon Chronicle records that he attempted at one stage to wrest the position of Bretwalda from Ceawlin of Wessex but was unsuccessful.
		The influence of Berthe, who had brought her chaplain Liuhard (or Letard) with her to Kent, may have led to the invitation to Pope Gregory I to send missionaries from Rome.
