Battle of Woden's Burg (592) (original) (raw)
The Anglo-Saxon Chronicle records a battle fought in the year 592 at Woden's Barrow (Old English "Wōdnesbeorġ"), the neolithic long barrow now known as Adam's Grave, near Marlborough, Wiltshire. The year entry states: "Her micel wælfill wæs æt Woddes beorge, 7 Ceawlin wæs ut adrifen." (There was great slaughter at Woden's hill, and Ceawlin was driven out.) The Chronicle records a second battle on the same site in the year 715. The area was of strategic importance since it lay near the intersection of the ancient Ridgeway with Wansdyke.

| dbo:abstract | The Anglo-Saxon Chronicle records a battle fought in the year 592 at Woden's Barrow (Old English "Wōdnesbeorġ"), the neolithic long barrow now known as Adam's Grave, near Marlborough, Wiltshire. The year entry states: "Her micel wælfill wæs æt Woddes beorge, 7 Ceawlin wæs ut adrifen." (There was great slaughter at Woden's hill, and Ceawlin was driven out.) Ceawlin was king of Anglo-Saxon Wessex. In most versions of the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle the entry does not record the identity of the force opposing Ceawlin but one version, Manuscript E, says they were Britons. Yorke, however, says the opponent was Ceol, Ceawlin's nephew. Ceawlin is recorded as dying the following year and was succeeded by Ceol; his son Cuthwine went into exile. The Chronicle records a second battle on the same site in the year 715. The area was of strategic importance since it lay near the intersection of the ancient Ridgeway with Wansdyke. (en) La Crónica anglosajona registra una batalla luchada en el año 592 en Woden Burg, el túmulo alargado neolítico ahora conocido como la tumba de Adam, cerca de Marlborough, Wiltshire. La entrada para el año dice: "Su micel wælfill wæs æt Woddes beorge, 7 Ceawlin wæs ut adrifen." (Hubo una gran matanza en el cerro de Woden y Ceawlin fue expulsado). Ceawlin era rey del anglosajón Wessex. En la mayoría de las versiones de la Crónica anglosajona la entrada no menciona la identidad de la fuerza enemiga de Ceawlin pero una versión, Manuscrito E, dice que eran Britanos. Yorke, aun así, dice que el adversario era Ceol, su sobrino. Ceawlin murió al año siguiente y fue sucedido por Ceol; su hijo Cuthwine se exilió. La Crónica recuerda una segunda batalla en el mismo lugar en 715. El área era de importancia estratégica por su situación cerca del cruce de los antiguos Ridgeway con Wansdyke. (es) |
