SIANCYN FYNGLWYD (fl. c. 1470), poet;
a native, presumably, of South Wales. Nothing is known of his life, but a few of his poems remain in manuscript. These include two cywyddau to Sir Rhys ap Thomas of Dynevor when he was a young man (Pen. MS. 83 (70), Llanst. MS. 30 (435)). His son, Dafydd Fynglwyd (q.v.), was also a poet.
