  • A Welsh Classical Dictionary
    A WELSH CLASSICAL DICTIONARY DACHUN, saint of Bodmin. See s.n. Credan. He has been wrongly identified with an Irish saint Dagan in LBS II.281, 285. G.H.Doble seems to have been misled in the same way (The Saints of Cornwall, IV. 156). DAGAN or DANOG, abbot of Llancarfan. He appears as Danoc in one of the ‘Llancarfan Charters’ appended to the Life of St.Cadog (§62 in VSB p.130). Here he is a clerical witness with Sulien (presumably abbot) and king Morgan [ab Athrwys]. He appears as abbot of Llancarfan in five charters in the Book of Llandaf, where he is called Danoc abbas Carbani Uallis (BLD 179c), and Dagan(us) abbas Carbani Uallis (BLD 158, 175, 186b, 195). In these five charters he is contemporary with bishop Berthwyn and Ithel ap Morgan, king of Glywysing. He succeeded Sulien as abbot and was succeeded by Paul. See Trans.Cym., 1948 pp.291-2, (but ignore the dates), and compare Wendy Davies, LlCh p.55 where Danog and Dagan are distinguished. Wendy Davies dates the BLD charters c.A.D.722 to 740 (ibid., pp.102 - 114). DALLDAF ail CUNIN COF. (Legendary). He is included in the tale of ‘Culhwch and Olwen’ as one of the warriors of Arthur's Court: Dalldaf eil Kimin Cof (WM 460, RM 106). In a triad (TYP no.73) he is called Dalldaf eil Cunyn Cof, one of the ‘Three Peers’ of Arthur's Court. In another triad (TYP no.41) we are told that Fferlas (Grey Fetlock), the horse of Dalldaf eil Cunin Cof, was one of the ‘Three Lovers' Horses’ (or perhaps ‘Beloved Horses’).

  • Nennius [Ninnius, Nemniuus] (Fl
    Oxford Dictionary of National Biography Nennius [Ninnius, Nemniuus] (fl. c. 770–c. 810) David E. Thornton https://doi.org/10.1093/ref:odnb/19892 Published in print: 23 September 2004 Published online: 23 September 2004 Nennius [Ninnius, Nemniuus] (fl. c. 770–c. 810), scholar, is commonly, but most certainly incorrectly, regarded as the author of the early ninth-century Cambro-Latin historical compilation Historia Brittonum. The ascription to Nennius occurs in just one of the numerous recensions of the text, the so-called ‘Nennian recension’, which survives in five medieval manuscripts. The earliest and primary recension (the Harleian) offers no identity for the author, while most others attribute the text, equally erroneously, to Gildas. No original copy of the Nennian recension survives, but between 1164 and 1166, at the Cistercian abbey of Sawley, Yorkshire, three different scribes collated the same (now lost) copy of the recension with the Gildasian recension which is now in Corpus Christi College, Cambridge, manuscript 139. The Nennian material was accordingly added to this manuscript as a series of interlinear and marginal annotations plus the prologue and this composite text is the archetype of all other copies of this recension. The Nennian recension seems to have been created in north Wales (possibly Anglesey) in the first half of the eleventh century, probably by a scribe called Euben (Owain) under the direction of his clerical magister, Beulan; and it was probably at this stage that the prologue attributing the Historia to Nennius was composed. This prologue describes him as (Ninnius Eluodugi discipulus (‘Ninnius disciple of Elfoddw’)). If Elfoddw is the bishop of Bangor of that name who in 768 was responsible for bringing the Welsh church into conformity in the Paschal question and who died in 809, and assuming the connection with Ninnius is reliable, then Nennius would have lived at some time between about 770 and 810.

  • Oxford Dictionary of National Biography
    Oxford Dictionary of National Biography Hywel [called Hywel Fychan] (d. 825) David E. Thornton https://doi.org/10.1093/ref:odnb/13967 Published in print: 23 September 2004 Published online: 23 September 2004 Hywel [called Hywel Fychan] (d. 825), king of Gwynedd, ruled the kingdom of Gwynedd in north Wales perhaps from as early as 798 but most certainly from 816 until his death in 825. He was one of two protagonists in a struggle for the kingship of Gwynedd witnessed in the chronicles between the years 813 and 816. Whereas his rival, Cynan, has been identified as Cynan Dindaethwy of the main ruling line of Gwynedd whose father, Rhodri Molwynog ab Idwal, had died in 754, Hywel's genealogical affiliations and political origins are more enigmatic. Two chronicles represent Hywel as a brother of Cynan and their rivalry would thus be seen as a fraternal struggle for their father's kingdom. This was the view taken by early modern antiquaries and inspired Hywel's cognomen Bychan (lenited Fychan), meaning ‘little’ and thus ‘junior’. Alternatively Hywel has been regarded as Hywel Farf-fehinog of the related dynasty of Rhos. This Hywel's father, Caradog ap Meirion, had ruled Gwynedd in the second half of the eighth century, possibly succeeding Rhodri Molwynog in 754, and had died in 798. Hywel Farf-fehinog would thus have sought to retain his father's hold of the kingship in the face of the traditional dynasty represented by Cynan. A third possibility is that Hywel was the mysterious Hywel ap Cadwal mentioned in the prophetic poem Cyfoesi Myrddin a Gwenddydd which lists the 'Kings of the Britons', mostly those of Gwynedd.

  • A Welsh Classical Dictionary
    A WELSH CLASSICAL DICTIONARY GADEON ap CYNAN. See Gadeon ab Eudaf Hen. GADEON ab EUDAF HEN. (330) Gadeon is probably the correct form of the name which appears in the tale of ‘The Dream of Macsen Wledig’ as Adeon ab Eudaf, brother of Cynan ab Eudaf. According to the tale, Adeon and Cynan followed Macsen to the continent and captured Rome for him. After that Macsen gave them permission to conquer lands for themselves, (see s.n. Cynan ab Eudaf), but Adeon returned to his own country (WM 187, 189-191, RM 88, 90-92). According to Jesus College MS.20 the wife of Coel Hen was the daughter of Gadeon ab Eudaf Hen (JC 7 in EWGT p.45), and this is probably correct although later versions make her the daughter of Gadeon (variously spelt) ap Cynan ab Eudaf, and she is given the name Ystradwel (variously spelt) (ByA §27a in EWGT p.90). Also in the various versions of the ancestry of Custennin ap Cynfor and Amlawdd Wledig we find Gadeon (variously spelt) ap Cynan ab Eudaf (JC 11, ByA §30b, 31, ByS §76 in EWGT pp.45, 93, 94, 65). Similarly in MG §5 in EWGT p.39, but Eudaf is misplaced. The various spellings show that the name was unfamiliar: Gadean, Gadvan, Gadiawn, Kadeaun, Cadvan, Kadien, Kadiawn. See EWGT passim. It seems probable that Gadeon ab Cynan is an error for Gadeon ab Eudaf, rather than to suppose two such persons (PCB). GAFRAN ab AEDDAN. He appears in Bonedd Gwŷr y Gogledd (§11 in EWGT p.73) as Gafran ab Aeddan Fradog ap Dyfnwal Hen.

It is divided into two interrelated sections which deal with a broad range of textual and archaeological evidence. Its starting point is an examination of Roman views of the inhabitants of the island of Britain and how ethnographic images were created in order to define the population of Britain as 1 barbarians who required the civilising influence of imperial conquest.
