Twrch Trwyth
Twrch Trwyth ((:tuːɾχ tɾʊɨθ); also (ラテン語:Troynt) (MSS.''HK''); Troit (MSS.''C1 D G Q''); or Terit (MSS. ''C2 L'')〔 p.217, note to line 18〕) is an enchanted wild boar in Arthurian legend, which King Arthur or his men pursued with the aid of Arthur's dog Cavall or Cafall ((ラテン語:Cabal)).
The names of the hound and boar are glimpsed in a piece of geographical onomasticon composed in Latin in the 9th century (Historia Brittonum). But a richly elaborate account of the great hunt appears in the Welsh prose romance ''Culhwch and Olwen'', probably written around 1100 AD. A passing reference to Twrch Trwyth also occurs in the elegy ''Gwarchan Cynfelyn'' preserved in the Book of Aneirin.〔 hints that Trwyth is mentioned in an obscure poem in the Book of Aneirin〕〔(The Lay of Cynfelyn ), at the Celtic Literature Collective of the Mary Jones website〕
The name in Welsh can be construed to mean "the boar Trwyth", and may have its analogue in the boar Triath of Irish mythology (see #Etymology and Irish cognate below).
==''Historia Brittonum''==
The earliest reference to the boar Trwyth occurs in a tract called ''De Mirabilibus Britanniae'' (or ''Mirabilia'' in shorthand), variously titled in English as "Wonders of Britain," etc. The ''Mirabilia'' is believed to be near-contemporaneous to the 9th-century ''Historia Britonum''〔, p.56, note 3 "De mirabilibus Britanniæ. Although this apparently froms no part of the original work of Nennius.."〕〔Geoffrey Ashe, under entry "Nennius", in: Lacy, Norris J., ed., ''The Arthurian Encyclopedia", Peter Bedrick Books, 1986〕 and is found appended to it in many extant manuscripts. It gives a list of marvels around Britain, one of them being the footprint left in rock by Arthur's dog Cavall (here Latinized as ''Cabal''), made while chasing the great boar (here called ''Troynt''):
