- Angharad Ferch Llywelyn of Powys
MAREDUDD ab OWAIN ap HYWEL DDA (died 999), king of Deheubarth. He succeeded his aged father as sole ruler of Deheubarth in 986, and in the same year repeated the achievement of his grandfather by reuniting Gwynedd and Deheubarth for the period of his reign.
When King Einion ab Owain was born in 0935, in Llandeilo, Carmarthenshire, Wales, his father, Owain Ap Hywel Dda of Deheubarth, was 25 and his mother, Queen Angharad Ferch Llywelyn, Of Powys, was 17. He married Queen Nest ferch Gwerystan about 0952, in Devon, England, United Kingdom.
So how did he get the title 'Hywel Dda'? Hywel travelled to Rome in 929 perhaps to empower his own image as a devout Christian king. Rome was the centre of the Christian Faith and Hywel's journey reflected the fact that Wales was part of the Christian world of the Middle Ages.
