Odd things to discover

…and rediscover. I’m reading along, trying to polish and edit my NaNoWriMo (yeah yeah – you’re asking – will she EVER finish???) when I read this:

“Yes that’s right. We were out taking some photos and measurements at Bryn Cader Faner and then we went down to Maen Llia in Brecknock. My parents, my brothers and I work together.”

I don’t remember off the top of my head what those two standing stones might be so I look them up (again, of course, since I had to look them up in the first place). The first is a circle of cairn stones, very crown-like. But the second, in the wiki article mentions a nearby stone Maen Madoc or Maen Madog. This makes my head snap up and I read on:

Though the stone is named after a Madoc, nothing is known of the Madoc referred to. The base of stone is surrounded by deeply embedded stones and this may mark the grave itself.
