Brân Galed was a hero in Welsh mythology. Being "of the North" he was celebrated as hailing from Hen Ogledd (English: The Old North).
A clue regarding Brân's legendary drinking horn was found by the 9th century Viking Eivor Varinsdottir while exploring an Old Cellar in Essexe.[1]
Behind the scenes
As Brân is a fairly common name among the early British and Welsh heroes it is difficult ascertain which historical hero or king might be the basis of the character. One possible individual is Brân ap Dyfnwal, mentioned by Geoffrey of Monmouth in his Historia Regum Britanniae. According to Geoffrey, he became king of Rome and his son was Cynan ap Brân, according to other sources.[2]
