[EB1] CEREDIG Ceredigion, fl 470s.
Ceredig is the eponymous founder of Ceredigion, and supposed son of CUNEDDA. His
existence, though, is subject to doubt, and his name may have been assumed by
working back from the name of the territory. If he existed, he must have been a
younger son of Cunedda, as EINION inherited the heartland of Venedotia (Gwynedd),
while Ceredig inherited the coastal territory of west Wales. He probably ruled
it as a sub-kingdom of Gwynedd, assuming it existed as a kingdom at all at that
time. There is some archaeological evidence to suggest that the southern part of
Ceredigion was culturally part of Dyfed and thus had closer Irish connections.
Ceredig is recorded as marrying Eleri, the daughter of BRYCHAN, which, if true,
would place him closer to the early sixth century. Two of Ceredig's daughters
married the native rulers of Gwent and Glywysing (see TEITHFALLT and GLYWYS)
suggesting that Ceredig was keen to develop alliances in south Wales. It is just
possible that this Ceredig bears some relation to CERETIC, the ruler of Alclud,
for although the latter is clearly identified with Dumbarton, both would have
had opportunities to undertake slave trading in Ireland.
