Wihtgils
Wihtgils was a semi-legendary Jutish chieftain who lived in the 5th century AD. According to the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle he was the father of Hengest and Horsa:
- A.D. 449
- ...
- Their leaders were two brothers, Hengest and Horsa; who were the sons of Wihtgils; Wihtgils was the son of Witta, Witta of Wecta , Wecta of Woden . From this Woden arose all our royal kindred, and that of the Southumbrians also.
