Hywel Ap Caradog Life story
Hywel ap Rhodri Molwynog was King of Gwynedd. He rose to power following a destructive dynastic struggle in which he deposed his brother, King Cynan Dindaethwy ap Rhodri. During Hywel's reign Gwynedd's power was largely confined to Anglesey. It was a time of substantial territorial loss to Mercia.
