An Entity of Type : owl:Thing, within Data Space : dbkwik.org associated with source dataset(s)

Some Triads simply give a list of three characters with something in common (such as "the three frivolous bards of the island of Britain") while others include substantial narrative explanation. The triad form probably originated amongst the Welsh bards or poets as a mnemonic aid in composing their poems and stories, and later became a rhetorical device of Welsh literature. The tale "Culhwch and Olwen" has many triads embedded in its narrative.
