"Theodahad was invited to share the throne with Amalasuntha in 534, after the death of her son. Theodahad accepted the title of king, but Amalasuntha, who opposed the Ostrogoth nationalist faction and was friendly with the Byzantine emperor, continued to rule as she had during her son's minority. In 535 the queen was seized and carried off to an island in Lake Bolsena, near Orvieto; shortly thereafter she was strangled in her bath by assassins, with Theodahad's complicity. Under the guise of championing the murdered queen, Justinian dispatched his general Belisarius, who took Sicily and Naples and marched on Rome late in 536. Theodahad, deposed by the threatened Goths at an armed conclave in the Pontine marshes, fled toward Ravenna, but he was captured and killed by a Goth on the Via Flaminia. "

Gwrthefyr's memorial stone, discovered at Castell Dwyran, provides clear evidence of his historicity. The inscription: "Memoria Voteporigis Protictoris" shows that he used the Roman title of Protector, rather than King. This has strengthens the idea that his Irish ancestors were brought into Dyfed as mercenary peacekeepers, protecting the area against attack from fellow Hibernians.

FatherAcacius "the Bearkeeper"1
     Theodora, basilissa Rhomaiôn was born circa 502. She was the daughter of Acacius "the Bearkeeper".1 Theodora, basilissa Rhomaiôn was brought up as the daughter of a bear trainer who worked at the Hippodrome (a huge stadium-like circus), in Constantinople. She worked there as a mime, and later as a full time actress. At the time, acting was not a highly esteemed occupation especially for women, so the term 'actress' was considered synonymous with the term 'prostitute'. While on stage she was remembered for her daring entertainment skills, off stage however, she lived a normal youthful life and was most remembered for her wild parties. She traveled to northern Africa as the companion of an official, where she stayed between 518 and 522. She settled down as a wool spinner in a house near the palace of the Emperor in 522 at Constantinople, Byzantium. She was not only beautiful, but intelligent, witty and amusing, which is perhaps why she won Justinian's love so much that he appealed against an old Roman law that forbade officials from marrying actresses in order to marry her. She married Justinian I "the Great", imperator, son of Sabbatius of Illyria and Vigilantia (?), in 525.1 Theodora, basilissa Rhomaiôn was crowned Empress with her husband on the death of Justin on 4 April 527. Empress of the East between 4 April 527 and 548. She died on 28 June 548.1 Theodora, basilissa Rhomaiôn was buried in the Church of the Holy Apostle, Constantinople, Byzantium.

     Hildigis was the son of N. N..1 Also called Hildechis.2 Also called Ildichis filius Tatonis.3 Hildigis was a witness where Waccho filius winigis, nepus tatoni, rex Langobardorum assassinated his Uncle Tato and usurped the throne of the Lombards in the period preceding the invasion of Italy, when they occupied territory roughly coinciding with Austria north of the Danube River, circa 510.4 Hildigis fought for decades against the man who usurped his rightful place on the Longobard throne, Wacho, after 510.1 He was harbored by the Gepid king Turisind.2 When Audoin demanded of Turisind, king of the Gepidae, the delivery of Hildechis, the latter escaped and wandered about in different countries.2 He was a witness where Turisind, King of the Gepidae harbored Hildechis, descendant of Tato, in the Langobard succession war before 552.2 Hildigis died after March 552. "The Langobards pushed into the territory of the Gepidae and defeated their adversaries. The field of battle was probably near Sirmium. Procopius (II. 0., IV, 25) puts this battle in the seventeenth year of the war (March, 551, to March, 552). Probably this is the same battle which Paul relates. The Gepidae now begged for peace which was accorded to them through the intervention of Justinian. As a condition the Langobards and the emperor demanded the delivery of Hildechis. But as the Gepidae were resolved not to violate the sanctity of a guest, and as the Langobards refused to deliver Ustrigotthus, neither of these were surrendered, but both perished by assassination, not without the knowledge of the two kings."2
