	Gruffydd ap Cynan
		rylliwyd grym Gwynedd ym 1063 pan anfonwyd byddin yr iarll Sacsonaidd Harold (yn ddiweddarach y brenin Harold 1) i mewn i ogledd Cymru gan drechu Gruffydd ap Llywelyn, uchel frenin olaf Cymru; gorchfygaeth a arweiniodd at farwolaeth Gruffydd.
		Yn yr anhrefn a ddilynodd farwolaeth Gruffydd ap Llywelyn, treiddiodd y Normaniaid ymhell i mewn i ogledd Cymru o'u gorsaf yng Nghaer, yn adeiladu castell tomen a beili newydd a thrawiadol ar (neu yn ymyl) y gaer Gymreig draddodiadol yn Rhuddlan.
		Dywed Walker (1990) fod 'Gruffydd ap Cynan wedi cyflawni llawer drwy gynnydd graddol ac amyneddgar yn hytrach na thrwy fesurau arwrol a chamau mawr ymlaen, ond roedd yn ddyn a chanddo ddylanwad eang'.

	Gruffydd ap Cynan - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		According to this text, Gruffydd was born in Dublin and reared near Swords, County Dublin in Ireland.
		Gruffydd landed on Anglesey in 1075 with an Irish force, and with the assistance of the Norman Robert of Rhuddlan first defeated and killed Cynwrig, who held Llyn for Trahaearn ap Caradog, then defeated Trahaearn himself in a battle in Meirionnydd and gained control of Gwynedd.
		His daughter, Gwenllian, who married Gruffydd ap Rhys of Deheubarth, son of his old ally Rhys ap Tewdwr, is also notable for her resistance to English rule.

		Gruffydd's mother, Ragnaillt, was the daughter of Olaf of Dublin, son of King Sigtrygg Silkbeard and a member of the Hiberno-Norse dynasty.
		Gruffydd and his ally Cadwgan ap Bleddyn retreated to Anglesey, but then were forced to flee to Ireland in a skiff when a fleet he had hired from the Danish settlement in Ireland accepted a better offer from the Normans and changed sides.

	Cynan ap Iago Information
		Cynan ab Iago was a Welsh Prince, the son of Iago ab Idwal, King of Gwynedd and father of Gruffydd ap Cynan who also became king of Gwynedd.
		Cynan was forced to flee to Ireland and took refuge at the Danish settlement of Dublin.
		Cynan may have died fairly soon after the birth of their son Gruffydd ap Cynan, for the near-contemporary biography of Gruffydd details Cynan's ancestry but does not refer to him in its account of Gruffydd's youth; describing Gruffydd's mother telling him who his father was and what patrimony he could claim.
