View source for Nothelm

'''Nothhelm''' (sometimes '''Nothelm''') was a medieval Anglo-Saxon [[Archbishop of Canterbury]]. A correspondent of both [[Bede]] and [[Boniface]], it was Nothhelm who gathered materials from Canterbury for Bede's historical works. After his appointment to the archbishopric in 735, he attended to ecclesiastical matters, including holding church councils. Although later antiquaries felt that Nothhelm was the author of a number of works, later research has shown them to be authored by others. After his death on October 17, 739, he was considered a saint.

He is commemorated on [[October 17]].
