Wat Tyler

Walter Tyler, commonly known as Wat Tyler (died June 15, 1381) was the leader of the English Peasants' Revolt of 1381. Knowledge of Tyler's early life is very limited, and derives mostly through the records of his enemies. Historians believe he was born in Essex, but are not sure when, or why he crossed the Thames Estuary to Kent where he led the revolt.
