Idris Gawr

Idris, King of Meirionnydd (c. 560-632) (Latin: Idrus; English: Ider), also known as Idris Fawr ("Idris the Giant"), was a giant and astronomer of Welsh tradition, whose rock-hewn chair on the summit of Cadair Idris was supposed to mete out death, madness, or poetic inspiration to whoever spent a night upon it.
