Sarn Helen (Q3399924)

Summary from English Wikipedia (enwiki)

Sarn Helen refers to several stretches of Roman road in Wales. The 160-mile (260 km) route, which follows a meandering course through central Wales, connects Aberconwy in the north with Carmarthen in the west. Despite its length, academic debate continues as to the precise course of the Roman road. Many sections are now used by the modern road network while other parts are still traceable. However, there are sizeable stretches that have been lost and are unidentifiable.

Summary from Cymraeg / Welsh Wikipedia (cywiki)
Am y gân o'r un enw gan y Super Furry Animals, gweler Mwng.

Defnyddir yr enw Sarn Helen, neu weithiau Sarn Elen, am y ffordd Rufeinig oedd yn rhedeg ar hyd ochr orllewinol Cymru o gaer Canovium (Caerhun) yn y gogledd hyd gaer a thref Maridunum (Caerfyrddin) yn y de. Credir fod yr enw yn dod o enw Elen Luyddog, gwraig Macsen Wledig yn ôl y chwedl. Mae'r ffordd o Gaerhun i Gaerfyrddin tua 160 milltir o hyd.
