In 793 AD, the King of Northumbria was Æthelred I. He ruled from around 774 to 796 and is noted for his reign during a time of significant Viking incursions, particularly the infamous raid on the Lindisfarne monastery in that same year, which marked the beginning of the Viking Age in Britain. Æthelred's reign was marked by challenges in defending his kingdom against these external threats.
