	Oswald of Northumbria - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Oswald's father Aethelfrith was the first ruler of a united Northumbria; Northumbria consisted of two kingdoms, Bernicia (in the north) and Deira (in the south), and the king of Bernicia, Aethelfrith, came to rule Deira as well around the year 604.
		Oswald's half-brother Eanfrith became king of Bernicia, but he was killed by Cadwallon in 633 (or 634) after attempting to negotiate peace.
		Oswald's head and limbs were placed on stakes, but according to legend, one of his arms was taken by his pet raven and dropped on a tree.

	CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: St. Oswald
		Oswald was thoroughly grounded in the principles of the Christian religion, and, though but twelve nobles with whom he returned from exile were Christians, far from abandoning his faith, his first care was to spread it among the Bernicians, thus confirming the political union effected by Edwin with a religious union unknown before.
		Oswald's victory reunited the Northumbrian Kingdom not only because he delivered it from the humiliating yoke of the Mercians and Britons, but also because on his father's side he was a descendant of Ida of Bernicia and on his mother's of the royal house of Ella of Deira.
		Oswald's zealous co-operation with the monk-bishop soon filled the land with churches and monasteries, and the church at York, begun by Edwin, was completed.

	The Ultimate Penda of Mercia - American History Information Guide and Reference
		Northumbria was greatly weakened as a consequence of the battle; the kingdom became fractured to some degree between Deira in its southern part and Bernicia in the north, with the Deirans acquiring a king of their own, Oswine, while in Bernicia, Oswald was succeeded by his brother, Oswiu.
		Oswald was thereafter popularly revered as a saint, with his death in battle as a Christian king against pagans leading him to be regarded as a martyr.
		It was probably at some point during Oswald's reign that Penda fought with the East Angles and defeated them, killing their king Egric and the former king Sigebert, who had been brought out of retirement in a monastery against his will in the belief that his presence would motivate the soldiers.

	The Heroic Age: Oswald and the Irish
		Oswald and Bishop Aidan appear to have had a friendly relationship (possibly unlike the relationship between Oswald and Aidan's missionary predecessor) and the Bernician king even acted as a translator for the Irish bishop (Bede 3.3, McClure and Collins 1994: 113-114).
		Oswald had possibly fought for Dalriada before (Moisl 1983:110-112) and Domnall may have supplied a large percentage of Oswald's retinue despite John of Fordun's claims that he would not support the Bernicians against Cadwallon.
		Oswald's overlordship, at least in the north, was based on personal obligations and kinship ties between rulers but Oswiu's overlordship was tribute-exacting domination which, if we can use his involvement in Mercia as an example, violated the sovereignty of the subject king by directly interfering at a local level within the subject kingdom [34].

		Oswald was arrested in a movie theater at about 1:50 pm, first as a suspect in the shooting of Tippit, and was then charged with assassinating Kennedy.
		Skeptics doubt the likelihood of Oswald being able to fire shots so accurately and rapidly with the weapon and from the position he was said to use to kill Kennedy.
		Many alternative theories of the assassination contend that he acted on behalf of others, or even that Oswald was not the actual assassin.

	The Heroic Age: Oswald and the Irish
		Interestingly, Oswald is similarly said to have co-donated the land for the church at Dorchester but this claim of Bede's may be influenced by his perception of the rights of later overkings.
		It is possible that the saga of Oswald's vision of Columba had been suppressed after Northumbria accepted Roman tradition at the Synod of Whitby in 664 and replaced Columba with St. Peter as the main saint of the church.
		That the sons of Donuel, Gartnait and Drest, were dependent upon Bernicia for their throne is also shown by the expulsion of Drest from Pictland within of year of Oswiu's death when the Picts rebelled against Bernician overlordship under Oswiu's son Ecgfrith.

		Moreover, its association with Oswald, King of Bernicia, is not clear before 1188, when it is recorded for the first time by Giraldus Cambrensis in his Itinerarium Kambrie ii.12: apud Oswaldestrroe, id est Oswaldi arborem.
		Blake and Lloyd are plainly wrong here, not even as a matter of interpretation, but because they have muddled the battle that led to Oswald becoming King of Bernicia with that at which he lost his life.
