CUNEDDA, Y CYMRY and the FOUNDATION OF CYMRU - A CALL TO MEMORIALISE, COMMEMORATE AND CELEBRATE.
The August 2012 issue of the BBC History Magazine includes a feature which asks the question: Why do many historians omit the kingdom of Rheged and it's ruler Urien the Great when writing about the Anglo - Saxon settlement of Britain? I am not going to tell you why, go read it up for yourselves. It does prompt me to ask a similar question as to why we in Wales/Cymru do not make as much of Cunedda and the founding of Cymru as the Hungarians do of Adpar or the French of Charlemagne. There is a constant calling for more memorials to Llywelyn and Glyndwr but what of other great Welsh Kings and Princes as Gruffydd ap Llywelyn and not least Cunedda and sons, why not? We need similar on a grand scale for Cunedda and his sons as much as the Magyar Lord ADPAR and the Chiefs. Why not a grand and great in size statue of CUNEDDA in Gwynedd possibly Caernarfon and, then each of his Sons memorialized in Counties of Wales named after them. Perhaps also in area of Allt Cunedda near Cydweli too, this then unifies concept of HEN TIROEDD CUNEDDA.
Some years back I and Sian visited Allt Cunedda (I have a post on
this and photos somewhere) and it is pitiful. Here is the Story
Archeolgists dug about there and took the Skeleton remains
away, never returned and are now said to be 'LOST' the local
farmers wife knew all about this and would like to see them
brought back. We need to look into this again, then during WWI
they built an Anti - Air Craft Gunnery Station Site close by
(Remains Still there), Guess what they used the remains of
ALLT CUNEDDA as it's foundations. GET THIS: All that remains
of ALLT CUNEDDA is a stone about size of 'STONE OF SCONE'
or a step you would clean your boots on. Now this is a
Metophor for the contracting 'Fro Cymraeg'.
ALL THIS IS VERY POTENT SYMBOLISM IF HANDLED CORRECTLY
IN A WELL THOUGHT OUT AND PLANNED WAY BY SERIOUS
PEOPLE NOT FLY BY NIGHT PATRIOTS OR 'IDJEETS' WHO
WANT TO DRAW ATTENTION TO THEMSELVES ON fb. YES A
PETITION IS NEEDED BUT MUCH BACK UP WORK NEEDS T
O BE DONE AS AN ARTICLE FOR A MAGAZINE AND LETTERS
TO PRESS AND SOME ONE SOUND TO TALK ABOUT IT NOT LEAST
TO THE MEDIA AND RE SUCH MAKE SURE THIS PROJECT AS A
WIDE BERTH FROM THE PATRIOTIC FRINGE - THIS NEEDS TO
BE A GREAT WELSH PROJECT TO TRUELLY TELL THE WELSH
THEY ARE OF THE CYMRY OF CUNEDDA. To this end a
Cymdeithas Cunedda be needed, maybe one could be
established at the Eisteddfod and take it from there fast
