Good stuff Caleb! Great bit of extra historical detective work on the Badon dating. Funny thing is the stone of Budic/Byddig/Boduoc at the Baedan battlesite, now preserved in Margan stones museum, was always traditionally dated to around 550ad which fits this dating, not to mention the characters who left their names in the immediate landscape such as Llywarch, Cynwyd, Cynan, Cadrod etc. Good work!!

Geoffrey of Monmouth mentioned that Badon was probably located at Solsbury Hill in Bath
Is there anyway to find/read the book of Llandaff? Is there any difference in its story to that of Layamon and Wace's Brut? How much also is written about Magnus Maximus and Arthur I? There seems to be a lot of untranslated sources whenever attempt to look into them.
DunGwardd in pre-history I believe. Ynys Medcaut was a place of spirituality and healing for centuries before it was Christianised. A fascinating place with a wonderful, peaceful atmosphere despite its violent history. Great bit of research too Caleb; keep them coming.
Well the issue is that the source that mentions all of these battles, is a source that mentions dragons and magic. It's also openly propaganda, and most of the battles given to Arthur are decades and hundreds of miles apart. Some of them already known to be fought by others.
