About the year 940, the British laws were collected by order of How- ell Dha, one of their kings, by Blangoridus, Archdeacon of Landaff, (by some called Languaridus) which being approved and confirmed by the king, and having been taken principally from the laws of Dulwallo Mol- mutius, are known by the title of " the Laws of Howell Dha," and are the most regular collection and system of ancient laws extant.
