Английская Википедия:Eliwlod
In some old Welsh texts, Eliwlod is a nephew of King Arthur.[1] His father is Madoc, son of Uther Pendragon, an obscure brother of Arthur's mentioned a very few times in Welsh literature.
Arthur thought highly of Eliwlod's eloquence.[2] Eliwlod appears in the Welsh Triads, where he is called one of the three "Golden-Tongued Knights of Britain",[3] alongside Gwalchmei ap Gwyar (Gawain) and Drudwas ap Tryffin. He pays a postmortem visit to his uncle in the form of an eagle in the poem Arthur and the Eagle.[4]
Eliwlod figures in the works of Welsh poet Lewys Glyn Cothi.[5] In the Hendregadredd Manuscript, the poet Bleddyn Fardd praises his patron Rhys ap Maredudd by likening him to Arthur's "beloved' nephew Eliwlod.[6]
