Ælfwine of Deira
Ælfwine( c. 661–679) was the King of Deira from 670 to 679.
He was a son of Oswiu of Northumbria and a brother of Ecgfrith of Northumbria.
After the succession of Ecgfrith as king of Northumbria in 670, he made Ælfwine king of the sub-kingdom of Deira.
Ælfwine was still a boy at the time, and the title may have been intended to designate him as the heir of the childless Ecgfrith.
He was, however, killed in battle against the Mercians at the Battle of the Trent in 679.
Although his death could have led to an escalation of the war, further conflict was averted by the intervention of the Archbishop of Canterbury, Theodore, and King Æthelred of Mercia paid a" weregild" to Ecgfrith in compensation for Ælfwine's death.
Bede writes: “ In the ninth year of the reign of King Ecgfrith( in 679), a great battle was fought between him and Æthelred, king of the Mercians, near the river Trent, and Ælfwine, brother to King Ecgfrith, was slain, a youth about eighteen years of age, and much beloved by both provinces; for King Æthelred had married his sister Osthryth.
There was now reason to expect a more bloody war, and more lasting enmity between those kings and their fierce nations; but Theodore, the bishop, beloved of God, relying on the Divine aid, by his wholesome admonitions wholly extinguished the dangerous fire that was breaking out; so that the kings and their people on both sides were appeased, and no man was put to death, but only the due mulct paid to the king who was the avenger for the death of his brother; and this peace continued long after between those kings and between their kingdoms. ”
Offa of Mercia
Offa was King of Mercia, a kingdom of Anglo-Saxon England, from 757 until his death in July 796.
The son of Thingfrith and a descendant of Eowa, Offa came to the throne after a period of civil war following the assassination of Æthelbald.
Offa defeated the other claimant, Beornred.
In the early years of Offa's reign, it is likely that he consolidated his control of Midland peoples such as the Hwicce and the Magonsæte.
Taking advantage of instability in the kingdom of Kent to establish himself as overlord, Offa also controlled Sussex by 771, though his authority did not remain unchallenged in either territory.
In the 780s he extended Mercian Supremacy over most of southern England, allying with Beorhtric of Wessex, who married Offa's daughter Eadburh, and regained complete control of the southeast.
He also became the overlord of East Anglia and had King Æthelberht II of East Anglia beheaded in 794, perhaps for rebelling against him.
Offa was a Christian king who came into conflict with the Church, particularly with Jænberht, the Archbishop of Canterbury.
Offa persuaded Pope Adrian I to divide the archdiocese of Canterbury in two, creating a new archdiocese of Lichfield.
This reduction in the power of Canterbury may have been motivated by Offa's desire to have an archbishop consecrate his son Ecgfrith as king, since it is possible Jænberht refused to perform the ceremony, which took place in 787.
Offa had a dispute with the Bishop of Worcester, which was settled at the Council of Brentford in 781.
Many surviving coins from Offa's reign carry elegant depictions of him, and the artistic quality of these images exceeds that of the contemporary Frankish coinage.
Some of his coins carry images of his wife, Cynethryth—the only Anglo-Saxon queen ever depicted on a coin.
Only three gold coins of Offa's have survived: one is a copy of an Abbasid dinar of 774 and carries Arabic text on one side, with "Offa Rex" on the other.
The gold coins are of uncertain use but may have been struck to be used as alms or for gifts to Rome.
Many historians regard Offa as the most powerful Anglo-Saxon king before Alfred the Great.
His dominance never extended to Northumbria, though he gave his daughter Ælfflæd in marriage to the Northumbrian king
Æthelred I in 792.
Historians once saw his reign as part of a process leading to a unified England, but this is no longer the majority view.
In the words of a recent historian: "Offa was driven by a lust for power, not a vision of English unity; and what he left was a reputation, not a legacy.
"
Offa died in 796; his son, Ecgfrith, succeeded him, but reigned for less than five months before Coenwulf of Mercia became king.
Cynethryth
Cynethryth(" Cyneðryð"; died after AD 798) was a Queen of Mercia, wife of King Offa of Mercia and mother of King Ecgfrith of Mercia.
Cynethryth is the only Anglo- Saxon Queen consort in whose name coinage was definitely issued.
Ecgfrith of Mercia
Ecgfrith was king of Mercia from 29 July to December 796.
He was the son of Offa, one of the most powerful kings of Mercia, and Cynethryth.
In 787, Ecgfrith was consecrated king, the first known consecration of an English king, probably arranged by Offa in imitation of the consecration of Charlemagne's sons by the pope in 781.
Around 789, Offa seems to have intended that Ecgfrith marry the Frankish king Charlemagne's daughter Bertha, but Charlemagne was outraged by the request and the proposal never went forward.
According to the Croyland Chronicle "he (Ecgfrith) was seized with a malady, and departed this life."
His reign lasted 141 days.
Ecgfrith was succeeded by a distant relative, Coenwulf, presumably because Offa had arranged the murder of nearer relatives in order to eliminate dynastic rivals.
According to a contemporary letter from Alcuin of York, an English deacon and scholar who spent over a decade at Charlemagne's court as one of his chief advisors:
Alcuin added: "This was not a strengthening of the kingdom, but its ruin."
