释义 |
Afrelia was a late 6th century saint, and princess of Powys. Afrelia was the daughter of Vortimer, a son of Vortigen and his queen Severa Verch Macsen(daughter of Roman Emperor Maximus). She was the wife of Umbrafel. Umbrafel had a nephew Samson of Dol. When Samson persuaded his parents to join a monastery,[1] Umbrafel and his wife Afrelia, decided to do likewise. Afrelia was also mother of Maglor Ap Umbraphel b485-575,[2] Henwg and another Unknown Child. She is said to have founded a monastery. Peter C. Bartrum suggests that she may be identical to the little-known Saint Arilda of Gloucester.[3] References1. ^Adrien Baillet, Les Vies des Saints, avec l'histoire de leur culte, selon qu ..., Volume 2(chez la Veuve Roulland, 1724) p401. {{authority control}}{{Saint-stub}}2. ^Julia M.
