Scottish and Welsh kings sometimes attested Æthelstan's charters, but never those of Edgar. His coronation at Bath was only attended by English magnates, whereas at least two Welsh kings were present at that of Eadred in 946. After his reign, southern kings' hegemony over other parts of Britain weakened further, and there is no evidence of Scottish, Welsh or Cumbrian kings acknowledging English overlordship until 1031.<sup id="cite_ref-FOOTNOTEMolyneaux2015200,_212–213_229-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEMolyneaux2015200,_212–213-229"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>219<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Death_and_aftermath">Death and aftermath</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Edgar,_King_of_England&action=edit&section=16" title="Edit section: Death and aftermath"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Edgar_in_Regularis_Concordia.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/61/Edgar_in_Regularis_Concordia.jpg/330px-Edgar_in_Regularis_Concordia.jpg" decoding="async" width="330" height="449" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/61/Edgar_in_Regularis_Concordia.jpg/495px-Edgar_in_Regularis_Concordia.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/61/Edgar_in_Regularis_Concordia.jpg/660px-Edgar_in_Regularis_Concordia.jpg 2x" data-file-width="1764" data-file-height="2398" /></a><figcaption>Edgar in the <span title="Latin-language text"><i lang="la">Regularis Concordia</i></span>, flanked by two figures, probably Æthelwold and Dunstan, and all three holding the manuscript<sup id="cite_ref-FOOTNOTEKarkov2008239_230-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEKarkov2008239-230"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>220<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup></figcaption></figure> <p>Edgar was thirty-one or thirty-two years old when he died on 8 July 975.<sup id="cite_ref-FOOTNOTEWilliams2014_4-11" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEWilliams2014-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> He was buried at Glastonbury Abbey, which was the burial place of his father and a monastery particularly associated with Dunstan and Benedictine reform.<sup id="cite_ref-FOOTNOTEYorke2013255_231-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEYorke2013255-231"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>221<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> His burial at Glastonbury helped to make it a leading royal cult centre,<sup id="cite_ref-FOOTNOTENelson1999106_232-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTENelson1999106-232"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>222<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> although there is no evidence that he was revered as a saint earlier than the mid-eleventh century.<sup id="cite_ref-FOOTNOTEMarafioti2014190_n._112_233-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEMarafioti2014190_n._112-233"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>223<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The historian <a href="/wiki/David_Rollason" title="David Rollason">David Rollason</a> comments that his cult had surprisingly little success in view of his role in monastic reform, "although presumably weakened by stories of his sexual adventures, notably with nuns".<sup id="cite_ref-FOOTNOTERollason1989140–141_234-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTERollason1989140–141-234"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>224<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> He is listed as a saint in some modern <a href="/wiki/Catholic" class="mw-redirect" title="Catholic">Catholic</a> sources with a <a href="/wiki/Feast_day" class="mw-redirect" title="Feast day">feast day</a> of 8 July.<sup id="cite_ref-catholic_235-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-catholic-235"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>225<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Two of his children, Edith and Edward, were widely revered as saints shortly after their deaths.<sup id="cite_ref-FOOTNOTERidyard1988154_236-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTERidyard1988154-236"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>226<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>The succession to the throne was disputed between the supporters of his two surviving sons.
