  • The Battle of Alclud Ford was a battle in c.580 at an unknown ford near Alt Clut, the original name for Dumbarton Rock which could also be used for the whole of the kingdom of Strathclyde in modern-day Scotland. It is known from two poems in the Book of Taliesin. According to Taliesin the Anglian king Ulph "came with violence on his enemies" and was met in battle and killed by Urien map Cynfarch, King of Rheged (probably Cumbria and/or Galloway), and his son Owain mab Urien, as noted in two separate poems. The Bernician attack would have been faced by spear and javelin armed horsemen, who made up the bulk of the Rhegedian warriors, whilst the Bernicians themselves would have primarily consisted of infantry as was the standard for Anglo-Saxon warriors of the period. Ulph was probably one of the sons of King Ida of Bernicia, most likely Theodulf, which puts the battle at c.574 or c.590, or potentially Frithuwolf, also known as Freothulf or Frithuwald, which would put the Alclud Ford at c.580. The battle was fought at a time when Rheged was at its ascendancy, and the armies under Urien and Owain were the most powerful in the north. (en)
  • La Batalla de Alclud Ford fue librada alrededor de 580 en un vado desconocido cerca de Alt Clut, el nombre original del Castillo de Dumbarton que pudo también usarse para todo el Reino de Strathclyde en la actual Escocia. Se conoce por dos poemas del Libro de Taliesin. Según Taliesin el rey anglo Ulph "vino con violencia hacia sus enemigos" y fue encontrado en batalla y asesinado por Urien map Cynfarch, rey de Rheged (probablemente Cumbria y/o Galloway), y su hijo Owain mab Urien, como se cita en dos poemas distintos. El ataque de Bernicia habría sido enfrentado por caballeros armados con lanzas y jabalinas, que representaban el grueso de los guerreros de Rheged, mientras que el ejército de Bernicia habría consistido básicamente en infantería, tal como era el estándar de los guerreros anglosajones de ese periodo. Ulph era probablemente uno de los hijos del rey Ida de Bernicia, muy posiblemente Theodulf, que batalló alrededor de 574 o 590, o potencialmente Frituwaldo, también conocido como Freothulf o Frithuwald, que sometería Alclud Ford alrededor de 580. La batalla ocurrió en un periodo de supremacía de Rheged, y los ejércitos bajo Urien y Owain eran los más poderosos del norte. (es)
