[edit] Summary

This map shows kingdoms in the island of Great Britain at about the year 800.

This file was created using DMIS. On that site it is stated that "We do not claim copyright on the images, so you can use them for Wikipedia."

This map is based on a map found in Peter Hunter Blair's "Roman Britain and Early England: 55 B.C.-871 A.D.", W.W. Norton, 1963, p. 209. I have removed Bernicia and Deira from Blair's version since they had lost their independence by the end of the eighth century. I've used names of states rather than peoples, added Dal Riata, and moved Strathclyde slightly.

I grant any entity the right to use this work for any purpose, without any conditions, unless such conditions are required by law.
