 | | In the aftermath of the decisive defeat of Mercia by Wessex (at the battle of Ellendun in 825), Kent surrendered to, and was subsequently absorbed into, Wessex. |
 | | By 694, however, Wihtred seems to be sole king, when, according to the 'Anglo-Saxon Chronicle', "the people of Kent came to terms with Ine [of Wessex]", and agreed to pay compensation for the death, in 687, of his predecessor's brother, Mul. |
 | | Heaberht appears as king of Kent in a charter issued (764) by Offa of Mercia at Canterbury. |
