Sæberht of Essex
Sæberht, Saberht or Sæbert〔His name is alternatively written as Saebert, Sabert or Sebert.〕 (d. ''c''. 616) was a King of Essex (r. ''c''. 604 – ''c''. 616), in succession of his father King Sledd. He is known as the first East Saxon king to have been converted to Christianity.
The principal source for his reign is the early 8th-century ''Historia Ecclesiastica gentis Anglorum'' by Bede (d. 735), who claims to have derived his information about the missionary work of Mellitus among the East Saxons from Abbot Albinus of Canterbury through the London priest Nothhelm, later Archbishop of Canterbury (d. 739).〔Bede, ''Historia Ecclesiastica gentis Anglorum'', Book 2, chapters 3, 5 and 6.〕 Other sources include the ''Anglo-Saxon Chronicle'', an imperfectly preserved genealogy possibly of the late 9th century (London, BL MS Add. 23211) and a handful of genealogies and regnal lists written down by Anglo-Norman historians.
==Family==
The genealogies and regnal lists are unanimous in describing Sæberht as the son of Sledd, who may have been regarded as the founder of the East Saxon dynasty.〔Yorke, "The Kingdom of the East Saxons", pp. 15-6.〕 According to Bede, Sæberht's mother was Ricula, a sister of King Æthelberht of Kent.〔Bede, ''Historia Ecclesiastica gentis Anglorum''. Book 2, chapter 3.〕
Bede omits the names of Sæberht's sons,〔Bede, ''Historia Ecclesiastica gentis Anglorum''.〕 but one name is given in the genealogy of MS Add. 23211 as Saweard.〔Yorke, "The Kingdom of the East Saxons", p. 4.〕
