Biography

Tybïe is a 5th-century Welsh saint. According to legend, she was a daughter of King Brychan, the ruler of Brycheiniog, who had a very large number of children. She is said to have founded the church of Llandybïe in Carmarthenshire. According to legend, Brychan's court was one day in the Tywi Valley. His daughter Tybïe, along with her sister Lluan (or Lleian) and other young women, went to Gelli-forynion, between the Black Mountain and Mynydd Mawr, to live in a cell. Together, they began to spread Christianity in that part of Wales. She had another cell at Cae'r Groes.
