[edit] Historicity of Caradoc
I changed the reference to Caradoc Freichfras as a "historical" ancestor to the kings of Gwent to "semi-legendary," because his existance is no more certain than King Arthur's. Caradoc appears in no contemporary historical account; his pedigree, which makes him the son of Llyr, the name of a Welsh sea and ancestral god, is suspect; and the possible confusion between him and such figures as Caratacus (who is firmly historical) makes his very existance questionable.
