Erich, King of Brittany
(Born c.AD 425)
(Welsh: Gereint; Latin: Ericius; English: Eric)
King Rivod's
uncle, Erich, may have held the Breton throne for a short time in his
twilight years. It has been suggested that he was the original Eric in the
tale of "Eric and Enid" that the Welsh later transformed
into a story concerning King Gerren
(alias Gereint) of Dumnonia as "Gereint and Enid". King
Erich died in 478 and was succeeded by his son, Budic
II.
