WHY SAWYL BENUCHEL'S GRAVE IS AT ALLT CUNEDDA

I have recently suggested that the Sawyl Benuchel of the Life of St. Cadog is a displaced version of Sawyl Benisel of the North, and that the latter was situated in southern Wales because of the presence there of a St. Samuel at Llansawel.

Sawyl Benisel of the North is known to have had strong family connections in Cumbria.  See "PABO POST PRYDAIN AND HIS SONS (A MAP)" in https://mistshadows.blogspot.com/2021/07/a-fairly-radical-revision-of-my-earlier.html. What I hadn't thought about is the fact that Cunedda, in an elegy poem, is also placed in Cumbria:

This is interesting, in that Sawyl Benuchel's grave has traditional been placed on Allt Cunedda

not far from Cadog's monastery.  Cunedda in legend was said to have cleared the Irish from Kidwelly and Gower (when, in fact, he was Irish himself, hailing from Drumanagh, not Manau).  

While Cunedda's presence in the North of Britain is based upon spurious tradition, the possible association of a Sawyl with ties to Cumbria and a Cunedda who supposedly fought in Cumbria would suggest once again that the southern Sawyl is merely a relocated version of the nothern Sawyl.
