Pybba of Mercia
Pybba (570? - 606/15) (also Pibba, Wibba, Wybba) was an early King of Mercia. He was the son of Creoda and father of Penda.
His dates are sometimes given in genealogies as birth in 570, the beginning of his reign in 593, and death in either 606 or 615, but with no apparent evidence; the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle just mentions him as father of Penda, with no further detail.
Pybba is also said to have been succeeded by Cearl, of unknown relationship, who ruled until Penda took the throne in 626.
