Aethelred I (d. April 871), king of Wessex and of Kent (865/866-871), son of Aethelwulf of Wessex.ald (d. 860). He seems, however to have stood aside in favour of his brother Aethelberht, king of Kent, to whose joint kingdoms he succeeded in 1865 or 866. Aethelred's reign was one long struggle against the Danes. In the year of his succession a large Danish force landed in East Anglia, and in the year 868 Aethelred and his brother Alfred went to help Burgred of Mercia against this host, but the Mercians soon made peace with their foes. In 871 the Danes encamped at Reading, where they defeated Aethelred and his brother, but later in the year the English won a great victory at a place called "Aescesdun." Two weeks later they were defeated at Basing but partially retrieved their fortune by a victory at "Maeretun" (perhaps Marden in Wiltshire), though the Danes held the field. In the Easter of this year Aethelred died, perhaps of wounds received in the wars against the Danes, and was buried at Wimborne. [Encyclopaedia Britannica]er Ethelred acceded in 865 or 866. He was the son of Ethelwulf and succeeded his brother Ethelbert. Ethelred, together with his younger brother Alfred, bravely fought the Danish invaders. In 865 a large Danish army landed in East Anglia and in 866 they rounded up all the horses they could find for use as transport, and moved up to York. It is interesting to note that they always tried to camp near a river for easy reinforcement and ship transportation of their supplies. From York they pillaged the country, marching through Nottingham and Thetford to Reading, which they reached by 870. In 871 Ethelred and his brother Alfred defeated the Danes at Ashdown near Lambourne in Berkshire. Ethelred died on Monday 23rd April 871 from wounds received on the battlefield. Elsewhere, the oldest dated printed book can be traced to China in 868.sh onslaught that re-started on his accession. He continually attempted to buy off the Danes - Danegeld - as when he lost the Battle of Maldon in 991. In a state of near panic he ordered the slaughter of all Danes whether peaceful settlers or not and this foul deed was put in hand on St.Brices Day 13th Nov 1002. Among the victims was the sister of Sweyn, King of Denmark. The Norsemen were furious and ravaged the country from Cornwall to Kent and from South Wales to East Anglia. At this time Ethelred married Emma, sister of the Duke of Normandy. By 1013, Sweyn, who was accompanied by his son Canute, was proclaimed King but he died soon afterwards. Ethelred fled to Normandy when Sweyn's rule prevailed and then on Sweyn's death he returned but the English lords placed severe restrictions on him. The Danes led by Canute returned in 1015 and landing at Poole they crossed the Thames at Cricklade. Ethelred died on Monday 23rd April 1016 and was buried at Glastonbury. He had truly earned his name - Ethelred the Unready. Abroad, the Vikings settled Greenland in 982 and, under Lief Ericsson in 1002, they explored the Eastern coast of America.
