Siefred (Sigeferth) is recorded as being a pirate in Northumbria around 893 and seems to have assumed control after Guthfrith’s death in 895.
Some 3,000 silver pennies bearing Cnut's name were in the Cuerdale hoard, found near Preston, Lancashire in 1840. The date suggested for the burial of this hoard is c. 905, soon after the Vikings were expelled from Dublin. Who Cnut was and where he reigned are matters of conjecture.
