Quote:What do you mean about such lists? The Gododddin poem is very British.We have lists that include Ambrosius Aurelianus and Macsen Wledig aka Magnus Maximus (a favourite of Comitatus..lol) and Arthur (of course)
but how many lists do you see that include Rhydderch Hael, Cadwallon or Coel Hen- even if he was the Dux Britanniarum...? Most people know the latter from the nursery rhyme... ! (yes, they usually are surprised to find out he was really a British warrior king...!)
Quote:And 'Minidog' may have been from the north, but he did not lead the army that went into battle!Didn't he....I thought they were his men :oops: Cynon...?

The enemy is less likely to get wind of an advance of cavalry, if the orders for march were passed from mouth to mouth rather than announced by voice of herald, or public notice. Xenophon
