IORWERTH DRWYNDWN (The Flat-nosed) (died probably c. 1174), prince of Gwynedd. Elder son of Owain Gwynedd by Gwladus, daughter of Llywarch ap Trahaearn. He married a princess of Powys, namely Marared, daughter of Madog ap Maredudd, by whom he had one son, the future Llywelyn ap Iorwerth.
These parents' joy was abruptly dampened when they discovered their new son had a disfiguring birth defect. His entire nose was missing and his nostrils were mere holes in his face. For his entire life he would bear the nickname "Drwyndwn", meaning "broken nose".
Owain Gwynedd was a member of the House of Aberffraw, the senior branch of the dynasty of Rhodri the Great. His father, Gruffudd ap Cynan, was a strong and long-lived ruler who had made the principality of Gwynedd the most influential in Wales during the sixty-two years of his reign, using the island of Anglesey as his power base.
Iorwerth ab Owain Gwynedd (or Iorwerth Drwyndwn meaning "the flat-nosed"), also called Edward (c. 1130-1174), was the eldest legitimate son of Owain Gwynedd (the king of Gwynedd) and his first wife Gwladys (Gladys) ferch Llywarch. He married Marared ferch Madog.
In 1157, with changed conditions in England, Owain suffered his only decisive reverse at the hands of Henry II. The expedition into North Wales undertaken by Henry in that year, though indecisive in its military results, marks a positive stage in the relations of England and Wales.
