		Coel Hen can be considered by tradition to be the first king in, and of, Northern Britain, and seems to have overseen the transition from direct Roman rule to an independent Britain which took care of its own defence.
		It was during Coel's time as High King that immigrant Ulstermen from the Scotti tribe of Dalriata (in northeastern Ireland) began to settle the western coast of Pictland, around Argyle.

	Coel Hen: a Cymric hero, also known as Coelius, Coel Odebog (Trust, the Old)
		Coel Hen is known from the Genealogies of the kings of North Britain, where he is presented as the paterfamilias of all the dynasties of the 'Old North'.
		Coel's body was first buried in a traditional mound at Coilsfield before being removed to the church at Coylton (which bore his name).
		Coel's name is derived from the Brythonic for 'Trust', though the modern Cymric usage is 'belief' and his epithet 'the old' is one used for sub-Roman rulers of the north (and it seems to be an epithet that is also applied to certain of his descendants).

	Old King Cole - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Cole, or more properly Coel (pronounced like the English word coil), is a Brythonic name possibly derived from the Roman Caelius, and there are several candidates for an historical basis to the rhyme amongst both the legendary and historical kings of the Romano-British and sub-Roman period.
		Projections back from dated individuals suggest that Coel Hen lived around AD 350–420, during the time when the Romans withdrew their forces from Britain.
		Upon Coel Hen's death, his lands would have been split between his sons and later his grandsons, thus creating the many old northern kingdoms of Britain.

		Both mention a man called Cynan (one calls him a son of Eudaf, the other a nephew) who went over to Gaul with Maxen's army and was rewarded with the lands of Brittany which the Welsh called Llydaw.
		A great-grandson could occur near 370 who would have been old enough to serve as a king of Britian between 388 and 425; indeed such a man would fit with everything we know of Constantine III who ruled from 407 to 411.
		Born about 279, he could easily have been sent by his father on a diplomatic errand to Britain to confer with the now aging Eudaf Hen, perhaps while his father was in York meeting with his second-in-command, Constantius Chlorus.
