History for the day

Ceri Shaw at Americrymu forwards this bit of history:

On 11 December 1282, Llywelyn ap Gruffydd, the Prince of Wales, was murdered. To distinguish between him and pretenders who have subsequently laid claim to the title, the Welsh stubbornly refer to Llywelyn ap Gruffydd as Llywelyn The Last.
His death is shrouded by the mists of time and legend. One fact that we can be certain of: he did die on the 11th of December 1282.
