Children of Brychan : ウィキペディア英語版 | Brychan
Brychan Brycheiniog was a legendary 5th-century king of Brycheiniog (Brecknockshire, alternatively Breconshire)〔Richard Morgan & R. F. Peter Powell, ''A Study of Breconshire Place-Names'', ( Llanrwst Wells: Gwasg Carreg Gwalch, 1999).〕 in South Wales. ==Life==
Celtic hagiography tells us that Brychan was born in Ireland, the son of a Prince Anlach, son of Coronac, and his wife, Marchel, heiress of the Welsh kingdom of Garthmadrun (Brycheiniog), which the couple later inherited. Upon his father's death, he returned to Garthmadrun and changed its name to Brycheiniog.〔Koch, John T. ''Celtic Culture: a historical encyclopedia'' Santa Barbara: ABC-Clio (15 March 2006) ISBN 978-1-85109-440-0 p. 301〕 Brychan's name may be a Welsh version of the Irish name Broccán and that of his grandfather Coronac may represent Cormac.〔Thornton, "Brychan Brycheiniog (''fl''. c. 500)." ''ODNB''.〕 The ''Life of St. Cadoc'' by Lifris (''c''. 1100) portrays Brychan fighting Arthur, Cai and Bedivere because of King Gwynllyw of Gwynllwg's abduction of his daughter St. Gwladys from his court in Talgarth.
