Æthelbert II (Old English: Æðelberht) (725–762) was king of Kent. Upon the death of
his father Wihtred,[1] the kingdom was ruled by his three sons, Æthelbert II, Eadberht
I and Alric. Æthelbert seems to have outlived both of his brothers and later reigned
jointly with his nephew Eardwulf. He died in 762, according to the Anglo-Saxon
Chronicle (recorded under 760 due to chronological dislocation). He seems to have
left a son, Eadberht II.
It is also said [by whom?] that an unnamed daughter married Ealhmund, King of Kent.
[citation needed]
He issued a charter before his accession,[2] dated 11 July 724, that was witnessed by
his father. As king he issued further charters,[3][4][5] confirmed a charter of his
brother Eadberht I,[6] and witnessed a charter of his nephew Eardwulf.[7]
During the latter half of Æthelberht II's rule, Kent was under the overlordship of
Mercia, but Æthelberht II maintained his position as king.
