  • 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’).

  • Arfau'r Beirdd 1
    Pennod 1: Cyflwyniad 1.1 Arfau a‘r Bardd Yn y gynharaf o‘r llawysgrifau sy‘n cynnwys y Gramadegau barddol a briodolir i Einion Offeiriad a Dafydd Ddu, sef llsgr. Peniarth 20, dywedir y dylid moli arglwydd o’y gedernyt, a’y dewred, a’y vilwryaeth. Daw hyn ar frig rhestr o nodweddion eraill, gan gyfeirio hefyd at allu ar wyr a meirch ac arueu, ac adurnyant gwisgoed ac arueu a thlysseu.1 Er bod y ‗Gramadegau‘ wedi eu hysgrifennu rai degawdau ar ôl y cerddi diweddarach a ystyrir yn yr astudiaeth hon, adlewyrchant yn deg bwysigrwyddd arfau fel rhan o ‗arfogaeth‘ lenyddol y beirdd drwy‘r Oesoedd Canol: caiff arfau eu defnyddio wrth foli gwrhydri a milwriaeth, ac fel rhan o ddarlun arwrol o wrthrych cerdd a awgrymai harddwch personol, cyfoeth a statws yn ogystal â rhinweddau milwrol.2 Nid i ganu mawl i arglwyddi yr oedd arfau‘n gyfyngedig, ychwaith, – fe‘u gwelir mewn cerddi i osgorddion ac i swyddogion, ac mewn cerddi mawl a cherddi ymffrost sy‘n darlunio‘r bardd ei hun fel rhyfelwr. Ac fe‘u defnyddid yn symbolaidd, yn ffigurol neu‘n drosiadol mewn amrediad eang o genres gan gynnwys canu crefyddol a cherddi i wragedd yn ogystal â chanu mawl i wrthrychau gwrywaidd. Nid yw‘n syndod fod y beirdd wedi gwneud defnydd mor helaeth o arfau yn eu cerddi. Mae croniclau megis Brut y Tywysogion yn tystio i hollbresenoldeb brwydro drwy gyfnod y Tywysogion, a‘r tywysogion eu hunain, fel llywodraethwyr canoloesol eraill, yn aml yn defnyddio dulliau arfog wrth adeiladu neu amddiffyn eu teyrnasoedd.3 Mynegwyd y ffaith 1 G.J Williams and E.J.

  • OBINUS, Fictitious Archbishop of London. He Appears Fourth in a List Attributed to Jocelin of Furness, Succeeding Cadar and Succ
    A WELSH CLASSICAL DICTIONARY OBINUS, fictitious archbishop of London. He appears fourth in a list attributed to Jocelin of Furness, succeeding Cadar and succeeded by Conan (John Stow, The Chronicles of England, 1580, p.56). OCTAVIUS, Duke of the Gewissei. See Eudaf Hen. ODGAR ab AEDD. (Legendary). Odgar ab Aedd, king of Ireland, appears in the tale of ‘Culhwch and Olwen’. He accompanied Arthur to the west of Ireland in the search for Gwrgi Seferi, the purpose of which is never explained (RM 134). Later Arthur dispatched a message to Odgar to seek the cauldron of Diwrnach Wyddel, his overseer. Odgar, king of Ireland, besought Diwrnach to give it, but he would not (RM 135). Odgar was the only person who could pluck from the head of Ysgithyrwyn, Chief Boar, the tusk which Ysbaddaden Pencawr required in order to shave himself for the wedding of Culhwch and Olwen (WM 452, RM 122). However it was actually ‘Cadw’ [Caw] of Prydyn who ‘took’ the tusk (RM 135). Odgar was brother of Gwitard, son of Aedd king of Ireland. On the name see Patrick Sims-Williams in BBCS 29 pp.605-6 (1982). ODIAR the Frank. (Legendary). He is mentioned as Odyar franc in the romance of ‘Geraint and Enid’ as the steward of Arthur's Court (WM 412, RM 265). See further CO(2) p.227. ODWYN ap TEITHWALCH. (1040) He is mentioned in the genealogies as a descendant of Ceredig ap Cunedda, and the father of Morfydd the mother of Gwaithfoed of Ceredigion (PP §45). Here the spelling is Odwin.

  • A Welsh Classical Dictionary
    A WELSH CLASSICAL DICTIONARY CACAMWRI, one of Arthur's servants. He is mentioned in the tale of ‘Culhwch and Olwen’ as one of Arthur's servants. ‘Show him a barn, if there were a course for thirty ploughs therein, he would beat it with an iron flail till it was no better than the boards, the cross-pieces and the sidebeams than for the small oats in the mow at the bottom of the barn’ (WM 467, RM 111). He was brother, by the same mother, to Hygwydd, another servant of Arthur (RM 136). He took part in the hunting of the boar, Trwyth, being one of those who succeeded in throwing the boar into the Severn, but he was dragged into the water, and as he was being pulled out, two quern-stones dragged him down into the deep (RM 140-1). However he evidently survived, for he was sent with Hygwydd to fight the witch, Orddu, but was manhandled by her and nearly killed. They both had to be carried away on Llamrei, Arthur's mare (RM 141-2). CADAFAEL ap CYNFEDW. In a triad (TYP no.68) Cadauel ap Kynuedw is mentioned as one of the three kings who were sprung from ‘villeins’, his kingdom being Gwynedd. According to HB §65 Catgabail, king of Gwynedd, appears to have gone out with Penda [see Panna], king of Mercia, with many other kings of the Britons against Oswy, king of Bernicia (642 - 671). A great battle was fought at Gai Campus, and there Penda was slain with great slaughter, and the kings of the Britons with him.

  • SACERDOS, a Presbyter. See Eborius
    A WELSH CLASSICAL DICTIONARY SACERDOS, a presbyter. See Eborius. SADWRN, ST., of Henllan. Sadwrn is mentioned in the Life of St.Winefred [Gwenfrewy] by Robert of Shrewsbury and in the Welsh Buchedd Gwenfrewy. According to these Gwenfrewy was sent to Sadwrn at Henllan in Rhufoniog, Gwynedd, by Deifer [Diheufyr] of Bodfari, close by. But Sadwrn evidently did not want to be troubled with her and sent her on to Eleri at Gwytherin. See s.n. Gwenfrewy. Sadwrn is the patron of Henllan (PW 103). The festival at Henllan is on November 29 (LBS I.75, IV.128), but this is the day of Saturninus, martyr bishop of Toulouse (LBS IV.126-7). Ffynnon Sadwrn and Bwlch Sadwrn are, or were, local place-names (LBS IV.128). SADWRN, ST, of Llansadwrn. The patron of Llansadwrn near Beaumaris in Anglesey (PW 94). In 1742 a stone recording the burial of Saturninus was dug up in the churchyard, and, as it is certainly not later than 550, it may be taken to belong to the Sadwrn to whom the foundation of the church is ascribed (HW 150, LBS IV.126). This suggests that Sadwrn (Saturnus) was also known as Sadyrnin (Saturninus), a hypothesis confirmed by the fact that two churches in south Wales, Llansadwrn, formerly a chapel under Cynwyl Gaeo in Ystrad Tywi (PW 50), and Llansadyrnin, Dyfed (PW 47), were both dedicated to Sadwrn and both had fairs on October 5 according to Nicholas Carlisle (A Topographical Dictionary of Wales, s.nn.). SADWRN, abbot of Llandochau. He is mentioned as a witness in one of the ‘Llancarfan Charters’ appended to the Life of St.Cadog (§67 in VSB p.134): Saturn princeps altaris Docgwinni, with bishop Berthwyn, Sulien, abbot of Nantcarfan, etc.

  • MABCLAF. See Gwawr (Ap Llywarch Hen)
    A WELSH CLASSICAL DICTIONARY MABCLAF. See Gwawr (ap Llywarch Hen). MABENNA. See Mabyn. MABLE, ST. The saint of Llanfable (Llanvapley) in Gwent (PW 73). Nothing is known about this saint, who is presumably female. Mabli is the Welsh form of English Mabel. See LBS III.390 n.3. MABON, ST. The presumed saint of Llanfabon, a chapel subject to Eglwysilan, near Llandaf, Morgannwg (PW 65). Maenorfabon and Maenordeilo are two townships in the civil parish of Llandeilo Fawr (WATU p.106) although Fabon (=Maenorfabon) is also said to be a township in the parish of Llangadog (Fawr) (WATU pp.68, 125). Both parishes are in Ystrad Tywi. It is apparently the proximity of Maenor- fabon to Maenordeilo that suggested to Iolo Morganwg that Mabon was a brother of Teilo (Iolo MSS. p.107). There is no other support for this. See also Mabyn, St. MABON (ap Brychan). See Mabyn. MABON ap DEWENGEN. (Legendary). He is mentioned in a triad (TYP no.66) as the husband of Emerchred, one of the ‘Three Faithful Women’ of Ynys Prydain. See further s.n. Emerchred. MABON ap IDNO. (520) Mabon ab Idno ap Meirchion was evidently one of the Men of the North, being mentioned in the ‘Hanesyn Hen’ tract (ByA §13 in EWGT p.88). In the probably genuine Talisin poem on Gwallog (CT XI) there is a line (l.26): kat ynracuydawl a mabon, ‘A battle near Gwydawl with Mabon’(?), which suggests that there was a Mabon who fought with (for or against?) Gwallog ap Lleenog. Another poem in the Book of Taliesin, Kychwedyl am dodyw (BT 38-39), but probably not Taliesin's genuine work, describes the battles of Owain ab Urien.

D ^ 'b-N ALL RIGHTS RESERVED TO THE MEMORY OF JOHN STRACHAN, LL.D. ADRAWDD EI DDAED AERDRIN NI ALLWN NI ALLAI DALIESSIN. INTRODUCTION The glossary here presented was undertaken at the suggestion of the late Dr. Strachan and his friend, Dr. felt keenly the J. Gwenogvryn Evans, both of whom very inadequacy of existing Dictionaries and the sore need of reliable information concerning the value of a large num- ber of words in Mediaeval Welsh. Apart from Dr. Kuno Meyer's complete glossary to the text of ' Peredur ab Evrauc,' and the short but interesting glossary by Canon Robert Williams to ' Y Seint Greal,' no effort had lately been made to collect material for a lexicon of Mediaeval Welsh and each scholar had to toil for himself. Dr. Gwenogvryn Evans very generously supplied me with an advance copy of his forthcoming facsimile of the ' Black Book of Chirk ' when the original MS. was jealously guarded at Peniarth, and Dr. Strachan did all he could to put me on the right path to win from my text the greatest amount of information and of experience in research.
