Life
Mydan is a legendary saint of medieval Wales, known only from one 17th-century manuscript. He is said to have been the son of Pasgen ab Urien Rheged and the brother of Saint Gwrfyw, the father of Saint Nidan. He was one of the saints of Cor Catwg at Llancarfan. It is quite possible that the name is a misreading of Nidan. Local and uncertain veneration, with no synodal canonization.
