Owain ab Urien
View through CrossRef
Owain, son of Urien of Rheged, is present in praise poetry and eschatology, hagiography and, Arthuriana. His historical roots are in post‐Roman northern Britain (the Welsh “Old North”), his grandfather being Cynfarch, founder of the Cynferching Dynasty. He moves into the Arthurian literature of Wales and beyond, becoming equal – or even superior – to Arthur in the Welsh tradition. “Owain” is common in the manuscripts as name of the prophesied deliverer, and Owain ap Urien may shade into Owain Lawgoch and Owain Glyndŵr.
