Greidawl Enemy-Subduer

Greidawl Galldonyd, Greidyawl


One of Arthur’s warriors and advisors in Welsh legend. He was the son of Enfael Adrann and the father of Gwythyr mab Greidawl.

He is one of the Three Enemy Subduers of the Island of Britain.

A Welsh Triad tells us that his granddaughter, Gwenhwyfar, was one of Arthur’s three queens bearing that name.

'Greidawl' may signify 'passionate'.
