Myrddin Wyllt


Living in the forests and wildernesses of Scotland at the same chronological time as Myrddin Emrys, this character has sometimes been incorrectly identified as the historical person who became better known as the wizard Merlin.

The true Wizard of the Arthurian legends was the Welsh Myrddin Emrys, who was born and raised in Carmarthen.
