Avagddu
|
In the myth of Taliesin, Avagddu (also called Morfran) was the extremely ugly son of Ceridwen and Tegid Veol. Avagddu's mother, Ceridwen, tried to help her son make his way in the world by creating a potion that would give him knowledge of the future. Unfortunately, she gave Gwion Bach the job of stirring the brew; he splashed some drops on his fingers and licked them, whereupon he gained he knowledge, and Afagddu remained ugly and despised.
