Saint Tathyw was a 5th-century Pre-congregational saint of South Wales, and founder of a monastic school at Caerwent where he instructed many of the leading figures of the early Welsh church.〔() 〕〔() 〕〔Hando, F.J., "Out and About in Monmouthshire" (R. H. Johns, Newport, 1958).〕 ==Identity== There is considerable controversy over the identity of Saint Tathyw. * He may or may not have been the same person as Tatheus, who founded a monastery just 10 miles outside Caerwent.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=EBK: St. Tathyw, Abbot of Caerwent )〕 He may also have been the female saint,〔() 〕 This is a leading theory. * However a legend from the village of St Athan holds that Tathyw was actually a different person called ''Tathan the Younger'' and that he is buried at St Athan Parish Church, although the exact location of the grave is unknown. This person was born Tathyw ap Ynyr about 490 AD the son Ynyr of Gwent, Grandson of Dynwal of Dyfed and Great Grand Son of Ednyfed King of Dyfed. His mother was Derwela Ferch Budic, a princess of Brittany.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=EBK: St. Tathan )〕 * Others link him to Saint Tathana, granddaughter of Meuric ap Tewdric of Trebeferad, who lived a humble life as a nun in a mud hut on the River Thaw, and was associated with the monastic school of nearby Llantwit Major. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Saint Tathyw」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
