#CalanMai was a busy time in mythic Wales. A scream afflicted Britain every May Eve when Lludd was king. Teyrnon lost his colts and found Pryderi on May Eve. Gwenhwyfar was abducted on #MayDay. Gwynn and Gwrthyr fight every May Day for Creiddylad.
'Rhonabwy' is a text set in landlocked Powys, Wales where a series of ever more glamorous knight-messengers seek attention from Arthur & Owein while they play board games. Outside a flock of ravens fight an army of knights. It's my FAVE and I won't hear a word against it. 🦅🏇🎲
In 2014, Huw Roberts of Llangefni made a fascinating discovery- an old Welsh triple harp, its strings long gone and signs of woodworm evident, yet remarkably in good condition. The question that immediately arose was, what is the history of this harp?🎼 It turns out that the…
Since everyone is talking about the Norton Disney Dodecahedron here's the Fishguard Dodecahedron now at the British Museum.
The quite remarkable Llangorse crannog near Brecon in @BannauB - a C9th Irish-inspired Welsh royal court & the only crannog known in Cymru/Wales Excavated in 1989-93 by @CUBALab & @SF_Archaeology More here: museum.wales/articles/1350/… 📷 My own, yesterday
#FolkyFriday Rhonabwy sees multi coloured horses, then watches King Arthur continue to play Gwyddbwyll with Owain while killer ravens attack his men and carry off their body parts. He then wakes to find he has been dreaming for 3 days! #DreamOfRhonabwy #RedBookOfHergest
Attending the Seremoni Gyhoeddi Eisteddfod Genedlaethol Wrecsam today with the Coven was just out of this world 🏴 I'm so lucky to be immersed in the beautiful and rich culture of Wales 💞
#MementoMoriMonday This oddity is a pedimented headstone from Bangor Teifi. The surface has flaked off the dove which adds a ghostly touch to The Holy Ghost and those hands are weird. Plus there is a bit of Coelbren y Beirdd the fake Druid alphabet invented by Iolo Morganwg.
As well as being an invaluable resource for palaeographers, vol. III of the Repertory is without doubt the best ever Welsh autograph book. Among the 600 scribes whose autographs are included are William Morgan, Morgan Llwyd, Iolo Morganwg, Dafydd ap Gwilym and Twm Siôn Cati.
Bragget - an ancient British liquor also known as Bragod in #Wales A sweet, spiced drink fermented from ale & honey King Hywel Dda, d.950AD, stated that 2 vats were a suitable tribute 📷: Staffordshire Slipware Bragget pot (1697) sold @Sothebys for $47,500 in 2019 #wyrdwednesday
This green garden is said to overlay the former Llys (court) of Llywelyn ap Gruffud (Llywelyn the Last). It is unknown if one wall of the building was incorporated into the wall but at ground level it is the only section of wall to have window seats. #MedievalMonday
In the 19th and early 20th centuries, the harp was the most important instrument in Llannerch-y-medd, Anglesey. 🎼 The Britannia Inn on the village square was home to some of the best harpists in Wales, and their home was known as 'The Home of the Harp'. They were famous for…
Looking down into beautiful Cwm Idwal today. Charles Darwin first came here in 1831 and seeing fossilised sea creatures in the rocks realised that this extraordinary landscape had been shaped by shifting glaciers. #Eryri #Snowdonia
#FolkloreSunday There were other magical swords as well as Excalibur in Celtic mythology: Dyrnwyn blazed with fire when drawn by a worthy person, "A wound from Cai's sword no physician might heal" and Manannán Mac Lir's sword was invincible ...
Today’s stone is six feet tall, worn smooth and black by sheltering sheep. (see next) Lovely views east towards Birds rock (Craig yr Aderyn) and off towards Cader Idris. (mirroring the landscape?) #StandingStoneSunday More 1/
Standing Stones aren’t always hiding in the wilderness, sometimes they’re part of our everyday street furniture like Maen Llwyd stone which is now sited on a traffic island! #StandingStoneSunday buff.ly/4ahGffo
This evening’s view from the Ffordd Ddu (the black road) #Meirionnydd overlooking the Mawddach Estuary. The light was fantastically crisp and blue with sparkly motes - or perhaps that was just my eyes
Decorated slate, Sling These decorated slate pieces are something of a tradition in the Dyffryn Ogwen area, although we do have records of examples from other areas in the Slate Landscape. 📸@GwyneddArch #FindsFriday #archaeology #WorldHeritageSite
Word of the Day: telynor 'a harpist': geiriadur.ac.uk/gpc/gpc.html?t…. Two hundred years to the day, the famous harpist Edward Jones, who was known as the King's Bard, died. As well as performing, he collected and published much traditional music and old verses.
#FindsFriday So - did the Romans invade Ynys Môn/Anglesey because of Druids 🧙 or.... ..the immense copper wealth of Parys Mountain? 🤔 Probably both.. Hefty Roman copper ingot from coastal Aberffraw, on display in the excellent Oriel Ynys Môn. 📷 My own, last week

Sometimes linked to the constellation of Gemini, or Gwyn a Gwythyr in Cymraeg. A very old story indeed, one that tells of a battle in the skies for love
I had a lovely Nos Galan Mai exploring castle ruins, being with friends, and spending some much needed joyous time in wonderful company. But now I cannot sleep for the life of me 😂 those Calan Mai goblins and ghouls must be dancing around in my mind. Bendithion Calan Mai 🌸
‘Usually’ doing a lot of heavy lifting here in terms of Welsh Calan Mai folk traditions - it would be more accurate to state that maypoles rarely featured in the celebrations. What you can be reassured of though is that ‘May rain kills lice’ (Gwlaw mis Mai a laddith lau) 🪳
Today is Calan Mai, or May Day 🌻 It’s an important day in the traditional Welsh calendar, which signifies the start of summer. It would’ve usually been celebrated with maypole dancing and singing summer carols. Are you celebrating today? 🏴 📸: @pplscollection

'Rhonabwy' is a text set in landlocked Powys, Wales where a series of ever more glamorous knight-messengers seek attention from Arthur & Owein while they play board games. Outside a flock of ravens fight an army of knights. It's my FAVE and I won't hear a word against it. 🦅🏇🎲

Guys guys guys I've just been accepted onto my masters in medieval studies!
@MythWelsh I use theory to try & get an idea of how manuscripts “work” online. At the moment I’m thinking about memory & post-phenomenology. I present my research at conferences, try & get it published, & hopefully somewhere along the line change how we think about digitised MS.

#FolkyFriday Rhonabwy sees multi coloured horses, then watches King Arthur continue to play Gwyddbwyll with Owain while killer ravens attack his men and carry off their body parts. He then wakes to find he has been dreaming for 3 days! #DreamOfRhonabwy #RedBookOfHergest
Attending the Seremoni Gyhoeddi Eisteddfod Genedlaethol Wrecsam today with the Coven was just out of this world 🏴 I'm so lucky to be immersed in the beautiful and rich culture of Wales 💞
#MementoMoriMonday This oddity is a pedimented headstone from Bangor Teifi. The surface has flaked off the dove which adds a ghostly touch to The Holy Ghost and those hands are weird. Plus there is a bit of Coelbren y Beirdd the fake Druid alphabet invented by Iolo Morganwg.
