Welcome to this weeks offering. The story of Hwicce is one I have been keen to cover for soem time now. I wish we knew more about it! I've covered every aspect i could find that can be sourced. there seems to be much specualtion and conjecture, including the sign in the video. What did I miss?

Usual notices:
1. We are not historians or Academics. We enjoy researching and learning, and with that we enjoy sharing our journeys with you. That said, sources for information often listed below with credits.
2. Corrections. Whilst we make every attempt to not include any errors, research, and piecing stories together from dozens of sources sometimes leads to one or two. I will note here if any are found:

Errors
1. One min in, I think I circled Swindon instead of Cirencester. But you get the idea.
