40-1 Einion "Yrth" "The Impetuous" ap CUNEDDA, King of Wales, son of Cunedda ap Edern and Gwawl verch Coel,was born about 417 in North Wales. He married Prawst verch TIDLET.
"In the division of the kingdom after Cunedda, the portion alloted to Einion was in the areas now known as Gwynedd. With the help of his brothers, especially Ceredig, and his nephew Meirion, he apparently extended the authority of his father to territories which later became the kingdoms of Gwynedd, Ceredigion and Meirionydd. The appellation 'Yrth' is believed to indicate that he was of a hasty and impetuous temperament."
