Watt of Sussex : ウィキペディア英語版 | Watt of Sussex Watt was a king in what is now the county of Sussex in southern England. His existence is attested by three charters that he witnessed, in the reign of Noðhelm, as ''Wattus Rex''. He probably would have ruled between about AD 692 and 725 and there is some suggestion that he may have been King of the Hæstingas.〔Searle. ''Anglo-Saxon Bishops, Kings and Nobles''; p. 271〕 ==Charter evidence== Some of the Saxon charters that date from the Kingdom of Sussex provide evidence which suggests the existence of two separate dynasties in Sussex. The charters of Noðhelm (or Nunna), who ruled Sussex in the late 7th and early 8th century regularly attest a second king by the name of Watt (or Wattus).〔Kelly. Charters of Selsey. p. lxxvi〕〔(Charter S.45 Northelm, king of South Saxons grants land to his sister. ) Accessdate 1 April 2013〕〔(Charter S.1173 Bruni dux of South Saxons grants four hides to the Abbot of Selsey ) Accessdate 1 April 2013〕〔(Charter S.43 Nunna, king of Sussex, to Eadberht, bishop; grant of 20 hides (tributarii) at Hugabeorgum and Dene. ) Accessdate 1 April 2013〕 Watt witnessed a charter from Noðhelm in 692, without any indication of his territory, he also witnessed (again as ''Wattus rex'') a charter where Bruny (Bryni), dux of Sussex, grants to Eadberht, abbot of Selsey 4 hides. The charter lacks a dating clause but as Eadberht was known to have been appointed bishop in 705 or slightly later, then the charter would have been created in 705 or slightly earlier. Watt is named as a witness on the charter together with Nunna.〔〔Kelly. Charters of Selsey. p. 23〕 Watt is also listed as a witness (as ''Uuattus rex'') of another charter, erroneously dated 775, which is believed to be a forgery.
