Arawn Caergwydion Litter

Welcome to "Caergwydion's" Photo Album.
 Born September 24, 2009.

Caergwydion: - translation: The Milky Way.

To Caer Gwydion (the mural enclosure of Gwydion) belongs a tale, which may be compared with the stories of classical antiquity on the same subject. Gwydion is a noted character in early Celtic romance, in which he figures as an astronomer and an enchanter. He was the son of Don, king of Llychlyn or Scandinavia, and is said to have lived in the fourth century. According to the Celtic poets, he travelled through the heavens in search of a lady, who had eloped with Gronwy Befr, and left a track behind him, which has ever since been called Caer Gwydion (The Milky Way).
