Edwyn ap Gwriad was a Welsh king of Gwent from 1015 to 1045. He likely overthrew his uncles, Rhodri and Gruffydd. He was imprisoned and blinded by his successor, Meurig ap Hywel, the son of Hywel ab Owain. The Anglo-Saxon name "Edwyn", along with Gwent's proximity to the English marches, seems to imply some degree of relationship with early English rulers of the time.
