| 290 | Aldhun, or Ealdhun (d 1018), bishop of Durham, a monk of noble family,was appointed to the Bernician see of Chester-le-Street, Durham, in 990.In order to escape the ravaes of the Danes, Aldhun, accompanied by thewhole body of his monks, left Chester in 995, and carried the body of StChuthberht to Ripon. This migration was, according to Simeon of Durham,the result of a divine warning. After the departure of Olaf to NorwayEngland enjoyed a respite from invasion. Seeing that the danger was past,Aldhun with St Cuthberht's body left Ripon after a stay of three or fourmonths. He and his monks did not take the straight road back toChester-le-Street, but went to Werdelan Hill to the east of the presentcity of Durham. There the carriage which bore the incorruptible body ofthe saint stuck fast. From this is was inferred that it was the will ofSt Cuthberht to remain there. Unfortunately the place was ininhabitable.It was, however, revealed to one of the brethren that the body was to betaken to Durham. The choice, whether it was made by Aldhun or his patron,was a wise one, for the place was very strong. It cost no small pains tomake it fit for the habitation of the bishop and his monks. Only onelevel spot was there in the neighbourhood where men could drive theplough. There Aldhun at once began to raise a large and stately church ofstone. All the rest of the land was covered with trees. Uhtred, theNorthumbrian earl, and all the people from the Coquet to the Tees, cameto help the monks. The trees were grabbed up, dwellings were built, andin three years' time (998) the church was consecrated, and received thebody of the saint. Thus it was that after 113 years Chester-le-Streetceased to be the see of the Bernician bishop; and thus Aldhun planted thechurch and city of the height above the Wear in a place of strength whichhas in no small degree affected the history of the bishopric. Many andrich gifts were made to the church of Durham during the episcopate ofAldhun. Some lands, however, were alienated to the Northumbrian earls tohelp them in time of need. Aldhun had a daughter named Ecgfreda, whom hemarried to Uhtred, son of Waltheof, the earl of Bernician Northumbria. Onher marriage the bishop granted her husband six of the estates of hischurch, to be held by him so long as he lived with his wife. Uhtredgained great glory by a victory over the Scots, and was made earl of boththe Northumbrian earldoms. He was now rich enought to resign the bishop'sgrant. He sent Ecgfreda back to her father and restored the estates whichhe had received with her. Both he and Ecgfreda married again. Aldhun isdescribed as a religious, humble, and gracious in word and deed. In 1018the whole strength of the Bernician earldom was destroyed at Carham byMalcolm, king of Scotland. Nearly all the thegns of the north fell in thebattle. When Aldhun heard of the piteous slaughter of the people of hisbishopric, he prayed that he might not survive them longer. He fell sick,and in a few days he died. One tower only of his new church remainedunfinished at his death. [Dictionary of National Biography I:247] | Ealdhun, Bishop of Durham (I11395)

| 294 | Alfonso VIII, byname EL DE LAS NAVAS (Spanish: He of Las Navas) (b.1155--d. Oct. 6, 1214, Burgos, Castile), king of Castile from 1158, sonof Sancho III, whom he succeeded when three years old, and grandson ofAlphonso VII, is a great name in Spanish history, for he led thecoalition of Christian princes and foreign crusaders which broke thepower of the Almohades at the battle of the Navas de Tolosa in 1212. Hispersonal history is that of many mediaeval kings. He succeeded to thethrone on the death of his father, Sancho, at the age of a year and ahalf. Before Alfonso came of age his reign was troubled by internalstrife and the intervention of the kingdom of Navarre in Castilianaffairs. Though proclaimed king, he was regarded as a mere name by theunruly nobles to whom a minority was convenient. The devotion of a squireof his household, who carried him on the pommel of his saddle to thestronghold of San Esteban de Gormaz, saved him from falling into thehands of the contending factions of Castro and Lara, or of his uncle,Ferdinand of Leon, who claimed the regency. The loyalty of the town ofAvila protected his youth. He was barely 15 when he came forth to do aman's work by restoring his kingdom to order. Throughout his reign hemaintained a close alliance with the kingdom of Aragon, and in 1179 heconcluded the Pact of Cazorla, which settled the future line ofdemarcation between Castile and Aragon when the reconquest of MoorishSpain was completed. From 1172 to 1212 he was engaged in resistance tothe Moorish Almohad invaders, who defeated him in 1195. In the same yearthe kings of Leon and Navarre invaded Castile, but Alfonso defeated themwith the aid of King Peter II of Aragon. It was only by a surprise thathe recovered the capital, Toledo, from the hands of the Laras. In 1212Alfonso secured a great victory at Las Navas de Tolosa over the Almohadsultan and thereby broke Almohad power in Spain. His marriage withLeonora of Aquitaine, daughter of Henry II of England, brought him underthe influence of the greatest governing intellect of his time. AlphonsoVIII was the founder of the first Spanish university, the 'studiumgenerale' of Palencia, which, however, did not survive him.[Encyclopaedia Britannica, 1961 ed., Vol. 1, p. 687-8, ALPHONSO VIII;Encyclopaedia Britannica CD '97] | King of Castile, Alfonso VIII "The Nobel" (I2163)
