Ceredig, King of Ceredigion (born 420AD)

Son of Cunedda, he arrived in Wales from Clackmannanshire with his father's family when they were invited to help ward off Irish invaders. As a reward for his bravery, his father gave him the southern part of his new kingdom, which was called Ceredigion in his honour.

The town of Cardigan is named after him.
