Oswald, St (
c.604–42), king of Northumbria (634–42). Son of
Æthelfryth and Acha, Oswald spent
Edwin's reign in exile amongst the Irish, becoming a Christian. Defeating
Cadwallon of Gwynedd, at
Heavenfield (634), brought him
Bernicia and
Deira. With
Aidan (from Iona) he restored Northumbrian Christianity. Oswald established an overlordship over Wessex (under
Cynegils) and probably the southern Picts and Scottish
Dalriada, and is one of the so‐called
bretwaldas. Killed in a campaign against the pagan
Penda of Mercia, at Maserfield, his cult was promoted by his niece Osthryth, queen of Mercia, and by
Wilfrid.
