	Rheged - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Rheged was a Brythonic nation of Sub-Roman Britain, where the natives spoke Cumbric.
		The name Rheged appears regularly as an epithet of a certain Urien in a number of early Welsh poems and Royal genealogies.
		Although Rheged could just be a mere stronghold, it was not uncommon for sub-Roman monarchs to use their kingdom's name as an epithet and generally, it is accepted as a kingdom covering a large part of modern Cumbria.

		Rheged royal genealogies trace later kings back to Coel Hen (Old King Cole), who appears to have ruled in the early 5th century (a matter supported by the word 'rheged' meaning Liberated, free, in free continuance).
		The language of the Rheged ruling classes, and quite likely of the majority of the population, was a Brythonic language called Cumbric similar to Welsh.
		One of the more accessible sources for Rheged history (and early Mediaeval British history generally) is the works of the Venerable Bede.

		So Cumberland is literally “land of the Cumber.” The name Rheged seems to derive from the Brigantes, the name of the original Celtic tribe that populated northern Britain: Brigant became Breged, then Rheged.
		By the 630s Rheged was absorbed into the (now) powerful Saxon kingdom of Northumbria, probably through the marriage of Rhoedd’s daughter (and Urien’s great-granddaughter) Riemmelth to the Northumbrian King Oswy.
		In fact, I associate the kingdom of Rheged and King Urien with the kingdom of Rohan and its ruler King Theoden, from The Lord of the Rings.
