Aetheling: Cadda 446-456, Cenwalch 456-462, Penda 463-465,<br />

Cadda was the third of Hengist’s ship captains, given control<br />
of the Great Stour River west of the Eastrige lands.<br />
His theod expanded slowly westward, absorbing smaller<br />
theods in its path and acquiring a reputation for bad luck.<br />
All Weowara’s aethelings died in battle, except<br />
Frithuwald, who stayed home with a broken leg during<br />
the Badon campaign and subsequently fled to the continent.<br />
After Badon, Frithuwald’s abandoned subjects are<br />
British-ruled.<br />

Aetheling: Wighelm 432-450. Horsa 450-456, Wiglaf 456-480,<br />

Wighelm and his followers settled in the Thames estuary<br />
before Hengist and Horsa landed at Thanet, as federates<br />
of the Cantiacii. When Vortigern gave Kent to Hengist as<br />
bride price for Rowena in 450, the already-established<br />
Wighelm protested too vigorously and was slain in battle.<br />
Horsa ruled the theod until his own death at the battle of<br />
Aylesford. Subsequently the theod reverted to Wighelm’s<br />
son Wiglaf and remained in the family, except for an<br />
abortive rebellion by a thegn in 482. The Wilmingas<br />
made a good living charging “toll” to ships traveling to<br />
London, using a powerful squadron of ships to control<br />
the Thames estuary - often provoking feuds with other<br />
Saxons. After Badon, Arthur recruits the Wilmingas as<br />
river patrolmen and customs inspectors.<br />
Wincelingas<br />
Center: Melentun (Milton)<br />
Aetheling: Wincel 436-445. Edbert 445-462, Egbalth 463-471,<br />
Wiglaf 471-480. Weohstan 480-495,<br />
Heahwine 495-510, Herewerd 510-518<br />
Wincel was the brother of Wighelm, who founded the<br />
neighboring Wilmingas theod. Wincel’s son Edbert sheltered<br />
Wighelm’s son Wiglaf during Horsa’s control of the<br />
Wilmingas; Wiglaf subsequently ruled both theods until<br />
he was succeeded by his son Weohstan. Weohstan’s two<br />
sons Wulfgar and Heahwine divided the two theods amicably.<br />
the Wincelingas supported the Wilmingas’ river<br />
pi racy.
