Manawydan fab Llŷr - son of Llyr, Welsh god of the sea, equivalent of the Irian Manannana.

Its relationship with the sea is not clear. He is known to have been the Brother of Blessed Branwen and Branwen. He married Riannon after the death of her first husband, Pwyll.

In one of the legends it has much to do with the world of mortals. One day his castle was covered in a wonderful mist with his family: Riannon, son of Pryderi and his wife Cigfa. When the fog fell, the country around them and the castle completely disappeared. They went to England, where Manawydan and Pryderi had hired to work on the skin. They did their work with such craftsmanship that local craftsmen forced them to leave the area. Upon their return to Wales, Pryderi and Riannon miraculously disappeared, leaving Cigfa and Manavydan alone, who, in order to keep them alive, tried to sow wheat. But it was impossible by the plague of the mouse that hit his fields. He caught one of the rodents and would have killed him, but at the same time, a wanderer appeared, who was ready to give him everything he wanted. Manawydan asked Riannon and Pryderi to return. The stranger agreed to meet this request. It turned out to be a wizard Llwyd, a friend of Gwala, one of the solicitors Riannon rejected to marry Pwyll. Bibliography

Until the fourth century, e. he was counted among the canonical books (Clement of Alexandria, Origen, and the Sinai Codex). Only Eusebius of Caesarea and Hieronim questioned his canonicity. This is not a letter in the literary sense, but a kind of catechesis, but of a quite personal nature. It was created between 70 (contains a mention of the destruction of the Temple of Jerusalem) and 200 (because it is remembered by Klemens Alexandria). Dating for about 130 years is most often accepted. Perhaps the site of the uprising was Alexandria, as the use of allegory, which is characteristic of local writings, speaks. The whole has 21 chapters. The author showed a thorough knowledge of the Old Testament, but he interprets it in the spirit of extreme anti-Judaism and expresses his conviction that God ...

Indexi is a rock group from the former Yugoslavia founded in Sarajevo in 1962. Initially, the group performed covers of songs by other artists, but over time the repertoire began to dominate their own original songs. It was then that a long over a ten-minute composition of Negdje was performed in the country at Zakiš, recorded in 1969 and one of the first major achievements of the progressive Yugoslavian progressive stage. In the later period, the group intensively performed (she performed in Poland and Bulgaria). The group ended its activities in 2001, after the death of vocalist Davorina Popović (d. 18 June 2001).
