https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iorwerth_Drwyndwn
Iorwerth ab Owain Gwynedd (or Iorwerth Drwyndwn meaning "the flat-nosed"),[1] also
called Edward (1130–1174), was the eldest legitimate son of Owain Gwynedd (the king
of Gwynedd) and his first wife Gwladys (Gladys) ferch Llywarch. He married Marared
ferch Madog. His son, Llywelyn the Great,[1] eventually united the realm and became
known as Llywelyn Fawr and is one of Wales's most famous monarchs. Iorwerth
received Nant Conwy as his inheritance from his father, Owain Gwynedd.[1] However,
he did not receive the crown succession, as was the normal tradition, because of his
nose defect (his soubriquet 'Trwyndwn' means broken-nosed).[1]
He was killed in battle at Pennant Melangell, in Powys, during the wars deciding the
succession following the death of his father.[2]
