HYWEL ap IEUAF

CADFAN

and S. Beuno; the account of Geoffrey of Monmouth is mostly fiction, but some colour is given to the statement that he sheltered Edwin of Deira by the triad which makes the Northumbrian one of the three oppressors of Anglesey nurtured in the island. He was the father of
Cadwallon
, the British leader in the conflicts of the next age.
ANGHARAD
