*English Below* Mynydd Parys!

Cadarnhaodd cloddiadau ym mis Awst 1988 y defnyddiwyd y mwyn yn yr Oes Efydd Gynnar (2000 - 1500 CC). Mae radiocarbon gan yr Amgueddfa Brydeinig o samplau pren Dderw Aeddfed a gloddiwyd o'r safleoedd mwyngloddio ym Mynydd Parys wedi rhoi dyddiadau o'r Oes Efydd Gynnar hefyd. Daethpwyd o hyd i forthwyl carreg yn un o'r orielau tanddaearol, sy'n dangos bod y mwynglawdd cynhanesyddol yn helaeth.

Parys Mountain!

Excavations in August 1988 confirmed exploitation of the ore in the Early Bronze Age (2000 - 1500 B.C.). Radiocarbon determinations by the British Museum of Mature Oak wood samples excavated from the mining sites at Parys Mountain have given dates of Early Bronze Age as well. A stone hammer was found in one of the underground galleries, indicating that the prehistoric mine was extensive.

On 16th September 2001, actress Siân Phillips unveiled a memorial statue to Owain Glyndŵr's daughter Catrin ferch Owain Glyndŵr in St Swithin's Church Garden, London.

Catrin was probably the eldest daughter of Margaret Hanmer and Owain Glyndŵr and in November 1402, she married Edmund Mortimer, an unransomed hostage who had entered into an alliance with her father. Edmund Mortimer died during the siege of Harlech Castle in 1409 and Catrin was subsequently captured alongside her three daughters, her mother and one of her sisters. They were taken to the Tower of London and the deaths and burials at St Swithin's Church of Catrin and her daughters are recorded in 1413.
