king of See also:Kent (d. 725), son of Ecgberht, See also:nephew of See also:Hlothhere and See also:brother of Eadric, came to the Kentish See also:throne in 690 after the See also:period of anarchy which followed the See also:death of the latter king. See also:Bede states that Wihtred and Swefheard were both See also:kings in Kent in 692, and this statement would appear to imply a period of See also:East Saxon See also:influence (see KENT), while there is also See also:evidence of an attack by Wessex. Wihtred, however, seems to have become See also:sole king in 694. At his death, which did not take See also:place until 725, he See also:left the See also:kingdom to his sons Aethelberht, Eadberht and Alric. After the annal 694 in the See also:Chronicle there is inserted a See also:- GRANT (from A.-Fr. graunter, O.

church, which purports to have been issued by Wihtred at a place called Baccancelde. This grant, however, cannot be accepted as genuine and
has merely an illustrative value, but there is still extant a See also:code of See also:laws issued by him in a See also:council held at a place called Berghamstyde (See also:Barham?) during the fifth See also:year of his reign (probably 695).
