This Welsh language volume offers an anthology of short texts from Cyfraith Hywel, with transliterations into modern Welsh. Very few materials on Cyfraith Hywel exist in Welsh, and in addition to that, edited texts of Cyfraith Hywel are very rare. To date, the tendency in the subject area has been to publish editions of individual texts, which often include lengthy and complicated texts; or studies of individual sections such as the law of women, the three columns of law, or the triad collections. The aim of the present work is to prepare exemplary extracts from different sections and subjects within Welsh law, with the aim of giving a general overview of the law, in easy-to-use and accessible extracts.
