Note 7 — Chapter VII · Triumphs of the Water-world
Reading edition
Supposed to be so called after a certain Tegid Foel, or ‘Tegid the Bald,’ of Penỻyn: the name Tegid is the phonetic spelling of what might be expected in writing as Tegyd—it is the Latin Tacitus borrowed, and comes with other Latin names in Pedigree I. of the Cuneđa dynasty; see the Cymmrodor, xi. 170. In point of spelling one may compare Idris for what might be expected written Idrys, of the same pronunciation, for an earlier Iuđrys or Iuđris. ↑
