| | Owain Gwynedd |
 | | Owain Gwynedd (in English, "Owen"), alternatively known by the patronymic "Owain ap Gruffydd", is considered to be the most successful of all the north Welsh princes prior to his grandson, Llywelyn the Great. |
 | | After the death of the eldest brother, Cadwallon, in 1132, Owain's main ally was his other brother, Cadwaladr, but the latter's misconduct resulted in his exile, and, from 1143, Owain ruled alone over most of north Wales and a significant part of the south. |
 | | According to legend, one of Owain's sons was Prince Madog, who is popularly supposed to have fled across the Atlantic and colonised America. |
