Hi Embrace Historia! Firstly, i would like to say that i watch your channel regularly and it's joy! Keep up with these wonderful videos! :) I'am currently at university pursuing an History degree so i can become a teacher! :) I want to write my final article (needed for my graduation) about the formation and consolidation of the Welsh Kingdom's after the Anglo-Saxon invasion of Britain, some time before the Scandinavian incursions, however, i'am having a really hard time finding any kinda of sources or even modern books and articles about that period of time. Could you help me by recommending some good sources for my academic research? I want to write mainly about the political system of the Kingdom of Gwynned, however, i would also like to cover the other Welsh Kingdom's. Thanks a lot for the attention!! :)
Thanks dude, here is a list of the sources for this video, I'd start with John Davies, A history of Wales book and then look at the A Research Framework for the Archaeology of Wales: Medieval, www.archaeoleg.org.uk/pdf/review2017/earlymedreview2017.pdf The Book of the Settlement of Iceland www.medievalswansea.ac.uk/en/... The Vikings, Else Roesdahl The northmen's fury, Philip Parker A history of Wales- John Davies Anglosaxon Chronicles The kings and queens of Wales- Timothy Venning The Welsh kings- Kari Maund A Research Framework for the Archaeology of Wales: Medieval Celtic Saints of Wales by Elizabeth Rees. sourcebooks.fordham.edu/sourc... The Welsh Annals.
Just a tip for pronouncing “Hywel”, the “Hyw” part sounds like the English “Hugh” so if you pronounce it like “Hugh’el da” it might roll off your tongue easier. Great vid anyway. I’ve been enjoying this series.
Nope, its a Viking copper alloy sword guard, here's a link to the museums its from museum.wales/collections/online/object/d34b155c-3661-3323-841c-53aeea42623b/Viking-copper-alloy-sword-guard/content/
@@Embracehistoria As Metatron pointed out, "copper alloy" is painfully vague and could mean anything from bronze to brass to other such metal alloys. I'm asking, gently, what was the specific composition. What alloyed with the copper in this sword guard?
@@ravensthatflywiththenightm7319 “Brass and silver sword guard decorated in the Viking art-style, about 1100-1125 CE. It represents an expensive top of the range weapon at the end of the Viking age.”
I only came upon this post trying to research my families origin. I know I am very close to 50% Dutch and 50% Norwegian. But given the name Brian William (was going to be wilhelmus, but America happened) Clemetson I'm interested in the small percentage of Welsh, British and French I have in me. I know my grandfather visited the powys area in his life, most notably after world war II. I'd be interested in anybody that has any information in that area or my lineage. Love and respect to you all❤
I would not call 1066 Normans as Viking. 200 years of adopting French culture, customs, traditions, language, attire, art, architecture, and breeding with Neustrian Franks, would make them not Viking. Or Danish as their ancestors were.

I misspoke, I should have said Viking ancestry, It's still ironic.
@@Embracehistoria fair enough
Yes but 1066 is known as the Norman conquest.
@@RhysapGrug yes. Norman conquest. Not Viking conquest.
No!
