Threads to the Past. Friday, 23 March 2012. Aelfgyva: The Mystery Woman of The Bayeux Tapestry Part Five. Tradition. Marrying her in this way meant that Cnut could take another, more politically convenient wife at a later date, as he did when he married Emma of Normandy, whose English name was also a Aelfgifu.
