  Kent, Britain - LoveToKnow 1911   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
The early part of Hlothhere's reign was disturbed by an invasion of Aethelred of Mercia.
Hlothhere died of his wounds, and was succeeded by Eadric, who, however, reigned under two years.
The death of Eadric was followed by a disturbed period, in which Kent was under kings whom Bede calls "dubii vel externi." An unsuccessful attempt at conquest seems to have been made by the West Saxons, one of whose princes, Mul, brother of Ceadwalla, is said to have been killed in 687.

 Hlothhere
Hlothhere was a king of Kent who succeeded his brother Ecgberht in 673 and appears for a time to have reigned jointly with his nephew Eadric[?], son of Ecgberht, as a code of laws still extant was issued under both names.
In 685 Eadric[?], who seems to have quarrelled with Hlothhere, went into exile and led the South Saxons against him.
Hlothhere was defeated and died of his wounds.

 Hlothhere of Kent - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Hlothhere (died February 6, 685) was a King of Kent who ruled from 673 to 685.
In 685, Eadric went into exile and led the South Saxons against Hlothhere, who was defeated and died of his wounds.
One charter [1] is precisely dated to 1 April 675 in the first year of Hlothhere’s reign, which conflicts with accession date attributed to him by Bede.

Hlothhere was a younger son of King Erconbert of Kent and his wife, Sexburga the daughter of King Anna of East Anglia.
Hlothhere was forced to back down and share his kingdom where, thenceforth, the two ruled together.
Hlothhere had been mortally wounded in the battles between the two and, though he struggled on for some months, he eventually died the following year.

 Theodore of Tarsus
Bede also declares that he was the first archbishop to whom all the "church of the Angles" submitted.
From the first he seems to have ignored the scheme for a separate province of York, but he reorganized the episcopate, assigning Bisi[?] to East Anglia, Putta[?] to Rochester, Hlothhere to Wessex, and Ceadda[?] after reconsecration to Mercia.
He brought the monastic education up to date by introducing literary, metrical and musical studies.

 History of England, The Anglo Saxon Period
Long after Aethelbert's reign, the king's servants of every degree were still being quartered on the country as they traveled from place to place to carry out their duties.
Other Kentish laws date from the reigns of Hlothhere and Eadric, brother and eldest son of Egbert.
They show a somewhat elaborate development of legal procedure, but they also recognized a title to nobility which is derived from birth and not from service to a king.

 The Earliest English Kings - Questia Online Library
Bede’s methods led him to give 680 for a year he would otherwise have thought of as 679.
A charter of Hlothhere, however, refers to 1 April 675 as ‘in the first year of our reign’ (CS 36:S 7), which means that he became king in 674 at the earliest and 17 September in his seventh year can have fallen no earlier than 680.
If, therefore, 17 September 680 fell in Aethelred’s sixth year, Aethelred began to reign at some point after 17 September 674 and before the anniversary of that date in 675.

 The Right to Bear Arms:
Blackstone, writing in the 1750's, could cite only an ancient law of Solon to the effect that every Athenian who walked about the city in armor was subject to a fine;[36] yet there appear to have been early weapons regulations in England as well.
In pre-Norman times, Hlothhere and Eadric, Kings of Kent in the 7th century, ordained that:
If, where men are drinking, a man draws his weapon, but no harm is done there, he shall pay a shilling to him who owns the house and twelve shillings to the king.[37]
