| 1603 | ENT_WEL_MANAWYDAN | reception_of | ENT_CEL_MANANNAN | low | Manawydan (Welsh) and Manannán mac Lir (Irish) share a common Celtic name-prototype *Manawydanō; in Irish tradition Manannán is an active sea-god and psychopomp; in Welsh tradition Manawydan is a land-based craftsman; the divergence suggests independent development from a common prototype rather than direct textual transmission; Mac Cana (1970) pp. 66-67; Green (1992) pp. 139-140; confidence is low because the character types are quite different despite the name connection | SRC_MACCANA_CELTIC_MYTH | reviewed | PER_CEL_MEDIEVAL_WELSH |
