Brother Holthwulf was an Anglo-Saxon monk who served within the cult of Saint Guthlac during the 9th century.
As a member of the cult who operated in a tiny sanctuary in Grantebridgescire, Holthwulf and his fellow monks, including Brother Guthwort, would make pilgrimage to Hammeham northwest of Lunden to collect apples for feasting in celebration of the saint. During one of such trip in the 870s, while his fellow monks returned to the sanctuary to prepare for feasting, Holthwulf's wagon of apples broke down in the middle of the road, which delayed his return. While many of the apples were lost, Holthwulf was able to save what remained in a small wooden box.[1]
While Holthwulf pondered how to return the remaining apples, the Viking Eivor Varinsdottir came across the sight of him and his broken cart, and she volunteered to carry the food and follow him back to his sanctuary. Along the way, Holthwulf conversed with Eivor regarding the apples and offerings to Saint Guthlac.[1]
