'''Cilydd''' is the father of [[Culhwch]], hero of the [[Middle Welsh]] prose tale ''[[Culhwch and Olwen]]'', the earliest of the collection usually referred to as the ''[[Mabinogion]]''. He is the son of Prince [[Celyddon]], husband to [[Goleuddydd]], who bore him his son. When Goleuddydd dies after giving birth to Culhwch, Cilydd hears about another woman, the wife of King Doged. Cilydd slays Doged and procures his lands and family, marrying the widow, who becomes Culhwch's hated stepmother.
