The FMG journal Foundations has been published twice yearly since 2003 in both printed and web-based formats. Further details are available on our website (http://fmg.ac/) or from the address printed inside the cover. This index to Volume 2 covers six issues published between 2006 and 2008 and follows a format similar to that for Volume 1, published in 2005. It is in five sections, the largest being the index to people. The complete Table of Contents to Vol.2 is also provided. As before, the following conventions have been followed. Although the principle of indexing by surname has been followed, this is not applicable in many cases to medieval names, and geographical or other descriptors have been used where available. In many cases prepositions or articles (of, de, le, la) have been omitted. Where included, the preposition follows the main index term (eg “Hay, David de”). Nobility are indexed by the family name where given in the article (“Clare, Gilbert de, Earl of Gloucester”) or otherwise by the geographical element of their title (“Cornwall, Edmund, Earl of”). Royalty, clerics and a few other cases are indexed by their personal/Christian name (“Edward III, King of England”; “Alexander the Great”). Complete consistency is difficult to achieve and the compiler apologises for any confusion. In the Index of Places, British locations are identified where possible with the three letter “Chapman” county code. These codes are widely used and may be found on a number of Internet sites or in general reference works on British genealogy. Foundations Vol.2 was published in 6 parts, but as the page sequence was continuous no reference is given in the index to individual part numbers. They may be referenced as follows: Part 1: pages 1-88; Part 2: 89-168; Part 3: 169-216; Part 4: 217-304; Part 5: 305-388; Part 6: 389-476. -478- FOUNDATIONS INDEX TABLE OF CONTENTS Volume 2, Number 1 The Charles F H Evans Award: announcement of the winning entry 2 FMG News 2 Royal Genealogy and the Gothic Thesis in Medieval Iberian Historiography (Andrew Devereux) 3 Some Internet Resources for Medieval Genealogy (Chris Phillips) 27 The Political Role of Solomon, the Exilarch, c.715-759 CE (part 1) (David H Kelley) 29 Thomas Ellis, Gentleman and Merchant, Alderman and Mayor of Doncaster (John M Ellis) 47 Call for Entries for the 2006 “Charles F H Evans Award” 53 The Five Odards: Their role in Northern England and Scotland in the 12th Century and some of their Descendants (MichaelAnne Guido) 54 A Vignette of the Family of Chiche of Canterbury and Other Parts of Kent (Kenneth W Jacob) 74 Abbreviations for Commonly Cited Sources 88 Volume 2, Number 2 FMG News 90 Call for Entries for the 2006 “Charles F H Evans Award” 90 Love Matches and Contracted Misery: Thomas of Brotherton and his Daughters (Part 1) (Brad Verity) 91 Nes Fitz William and the Earls of Fife: The origin of the house of Fife 962-1129 (MichaelAnne Guido) 112 The Ancestry of the Ellis family of Kiddal Hall in the Parish of Barwick-in-Elmet in the West Riding of the County of York (John M Ellis) 135 The Political Role of Solomon, the Exilarch, c.715-759 CE (part 2) (David H Kelley) 140 Monomachos, Tornikes and an uncharted Caucasian ancestry (Stanford Mōmmaerts-Browne) 158 Some Internet Resources for Medieval Genealogy: 8 (Chris Phillips) 163 The FMG Library: Recent acquisitions 164 Medieval Lands: A prosopography of medieval European noble and royal families (Charles Cawley) 165 Volume 2, Number 3 The Charles F H Evans Award: announcement of the winning entry 170 FMG News 170 A Genealogy of the Grand Komnenoi of Trebizond (Kelsey Jackson Williams) 171 Dukes of Normandy: help requested (Thierry le Hête) 189 Empire of Trebizond: background note 190 Some Internet Resources for Medieval Genealogy: 9 (Chris Phillips) 191 Who was Malcolm, King of the Cumbrians?

  • Kingdom of Strathclyde from Wikipedia, the Free Encyclopedia
    Kingdom of Strathclyde From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Strathclyde (lit. "Strath of the Clyde"), originally Brythonic Ystrad Clud, was one of the early medieval kingdoms of the Kingdom of Strathclyde Celtic people called the Britons in the Hen Ogledd, the Teyrnas Ystrad Clut Brythonic-speaking parts of what is now southern Scotland and northern England. The kingdom developed during the ← 5th century–11th → post-Roman period. It is also known as Alt Clut, the Brythonic century name for Dumbarton Rock, the medieval capital of the region. It may have had its origins with the Damnonii people of Ptolemy's Geographia. The language of Strathclyde, and that of the Britons in surrounding areas under non-native rulership, is known as Cumbric, a dialect or language closely related to Old Welsh. Place-name and archaeological evidence points to some settlement by Norse or Norse–Gaels in the Viking Age, although to a lesser degree than in neighbouring Galloway. A small number of Anglian place-names show some limited settlement by incomers from Northumbria prior to the Norse settlement. Due to the series of language changes in the area, it is not possible to say whether any Goidelic settlement took place before Gaelic was introduced in the High Middle Ages. After the sack of Dumbarton Rock by a Viking army from Dublin in 870, the name Strathclyde comes into use, perhaps reflecting a move of the centre of the kingdom to Govan. In the same period, it was also referred to as Cumbria, and its inhabitants as Cumbrians. During the High Middle Ages, the area was conquered by the Kingdom of Alba, becoming part of The core of Strathclyde is the strath of the River Clyde.

  • 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’).

  • Robert Graves the White Goddess
    ROBERT GRAVES THE WHITE GODDESS IN DEDICATION All saints revile her, and all sober men Ruled by the God Apollo's golden mean— In scorn of which I sailed to find her In distant regions likeliest to hold her Whom I desired above all things to know, Sister of the mirage and echo. It was a virtue not to stay, To go my headstrong and heroic way Seeking her out at the volcano's head, Among pack ice, or where the track had faded Beyond the cavern of the seven sleepers: Whose broad high brow was white as any leper's, Whose eyes were blue, with rowan-berry lips, With hair curled honey-coloured to white hips. Green sap of Spring in the young wood a-stir Will celebrate the Mountain Mother, And every song-bird shout awhile for her; But I am gifted, even in November Rawest of seasons, with so huge a sense Of her nakedly worn magnificence I forget cruelty and past betrayal, Careless of where the next bright bolt may fall. FOREWORD am grateful to Philip and Sally Graves, Christopher Hawkes, John Knittel, Valentin Iremonger, Max Mallowan, E. M. Parr, Joshua IPodro, Lynette Roberts, Martin Seymour-Smith, John Heath-Stubbs and numerous correspondents, who have supplied me with source- material for this book: and to Kenneth Gay who has helped me to arrange it. Yet since the first edition appeared in 1946, no expert in ancient Irish or Welsh has offered me the least help in refining my argument, or pointed out any of the errors which are bound to have crept into the text, or even acknowledged my letters.

  • Who Was Malcolm, King of the Cumbrians?
    MALCOLM, KING OF THE CUMBRIANS -193- WHO WAS MALCOLM, KING OF THE CUMBRIANS? A STUDY OF THE KINGS OF STRATHCLYDE AND CUMBRIA AND THEIR RELATIONSHIP TO KING DUBH’S DESCENDANTS IN THE WORK OF FORDUN AND THE EARLY CHRONICLES. By Michael Anne Guido 1 ABSTRACT John of Fordun has been cited as the source of errors on the descendants of King Dubh by supposedly creating Malcolm mac Dubh, his eldest son, stated to be King of the Cumbrians. Was this really a fabrication or a mistake? This article proposes a solution to some of the problems in Fordun’s work by showing that the tanists were actually governors of Strathclyde based on an analysis of the early chronicles. Foundations (2007) 2 (3): 193-213 © Copyright FMG and the author The kingdom of Strathclyde (Fig.1) originated in the 5th century with the rise of many smaller kingdoms after the withdrawal of the Romans from the island of Britain. The inhabitants of Strathclyde were probably descendants of the native people called Damnonii who were first recorded on Ptolemy’s map in the second century2 (MacQuarrie, 1993, p.2; Duncan, 1975, p.17). These Britons were akin to the Welsh3 (MacQuarrie, p.2) and known in the Welsh chronicles as Gwyr y Gogledd (Men of the North). The inhabitants of Strathclyde shared the same root language with Welsh as they spoke Cumbrian which was one of the four dialects of Brythonic Gaelic, the others being Cornish and Breton. These languages form a group called P-Celtic as opposed to Q-Celtic which is the Gaelic language cluster of Irish, Scottish and Manx.

    THE THIRTEEN TREASURES PDF, EPUB, EBOOK Michelle Harrison | 352 pages | 05 Aug 2014 | Simon & Schuster Ltd | 9781471121678 | English | London, United Kingdom 13 Treasures (13 Treasures Trilogy Series #1) by Michelle Harrison, Paperback | Barnes & Noble® They belonged to gods and heroes, and were current in our island till the end of the divine age, when Merlin, fading out of the world, took them with him into his airy tomb, never to be seen by mortal eyes again. According to tradition, they consisted of a sword, a basket, a drinking-horn, a chariot, a halter, a knife, a cauldron, a whetstone, a garment, a pan, a platter, a chess board, and a mantle, all possessed of [marvelous qualities]. The number tallies, for there are thirteen of them. Everyone had heard of the Thirteen Treasures of Britain. Many, no doubt, disputed as to what they were. Others might ask whence they came. They were won by Arthur and his mighty men. Lists of the items appear in texts dating to the 15th and 16th centuries. Likewise, in early British legends, it is said that the British Isles were, in a bygone age, the home of gods and heroes. Although these figures no longer dwell on the British Isles, legends sprung up about the magical objects these beings left behind. The Thirteen Treasures are said to have been located in the north of the British Isles, i. This peculiar sword belonged to Rhydderch Hael, a 7 th century ruler of Alt Clut, a Brittonic kingdom in what is now Strathclyde, Scotland. When the sword was drawn by a worthy man, it would burst into flames from its hilt to its tip.

  • I Belong to Glasgow??? St Mungo and His Galloway Connections Talk to Kirkcudbright History Society, 13Th January 2021 Good Eveni
    I belong to Glasgow??? St Mungo and his Galloway connections Talk to Kirkcudbright History Society, 13th January 2021 Good evening. This is the third time I’ve spoken to KHS, the first was about stained glass in late 19th and early 20th century Scotland, the second was about the late 18th century radical, Thomas Muir. If qualifications are needed to talk to the History Society, mine were pretty threadbare for those talks so I thought it would be no bad thing to move to a subject that was a bit closer to those areas of history that I actually spent some time studying! My arts degree is in Mediaeval History and my divinity degree is in Church History so St Mungo ticks both these boxes quite nicely. But the main thing that led me to this topic is that today is the 1400 and somethingth anniversary of the death of St Mungo. On 13th January 614 or possibly 603 or 604, he either died in his bath, or possibly in the middle of administering the sacrament of baptism. So welcome to the sixth and seventh centuries in Scotland where dates are vague, names are fluid, the political geography is unfamiliar and established facts are as rare as unicorn eggs. There’s actually quite a lot of information about St Mungo in the song ‘Dear Green Place’ by the Battlefield Band and as far as I can tell, it’s reasonably accurate. It tells us Mungo’s given name, Kentigern (Big Chief!) and that before he arrived in Glasgow, he was based in Fife.

    Vox Clamantis Bulletin of the Society of Saint Pius X in Scotland June 2018 “The will to do, the soul to dare” . Dear Faithful, With the joy of Corpus Christi still fresh in our souls we now move onward into the de facto extension of the Easter season, long after the Paschal candle has been put away (until the next baptism). Though most of the octaves of the great feasts were abolished fairly recently, the date of Corpus Christi and this month Sa- cred Heart is calculated from the end of the Easter season. Our Lord wanted Corpus Christi to be celebrated on the Thursday after the Whit octave and then Sacred Heart on the Friday af- ter the Corpus Christi octave. This is why their dates change from year to year. Towards the end of the month come two more great feasts: St. John the Baptist and then the holy apostles, Peter and Paul, for many of the priests in the district the anniversary of their ordination. In to- day’s secu- Fr. Wingerden as a newly ordained priest lar world it is hard to The bishops whose decision it is whether remember a holyday of obligation remains so within their the origin of jurisdiction are probably motivated by the the concept thought that it is better for there to be no obli- ‘holiday’, gation if the people are not going to go, either though but because they cannot, due to work, or will not. a cursory This makes it quite tricky for us in tradition moment of who cannot oblige our faithful but would like to reflection keep the traditional days holy since a) they should lead have been kept so for centuries, through the in- one to the dustrial revolution and well beyond, b) they are conclusion still holidays in the universal Church to which that a day we belong and c) they offer worship to God and off work sanctification to His people.

  • 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.
