Ceonhwærfs
Ceonhwærfs were a group of Anglo-Saxon mercenaries or warriors who appear in historical records, notably in relation to the kingdom of Mercia. The name itself is Old English and can be interpreted as "king's exiles" or "king's wanderers," suggesting a status of individuals who had been banished or were serving abroad.
Their primary historical mention comes from the early 9th century, specifically during the reign of King Wiglaf
The exact composition and origins of the Ceonhwærfs are not definitively known. They may have been disaffected
