| Summary, etc. | "An Enquiry into the Truth of the Tradition, Concerning the Discovery of America, by Prince Madog Ab Owen Gwynedd, About the Year, 1170" by John Williams is a historical account written in the late 18th century. The work presents an intriguing hypothesis that challenges the conventional narrative of European discovery of America, positing that the Welsh Prince Madog may have landed in the Americas centuries before Columbus. The author seeks to provide evidence through historical texts, traditions, and linguistic similarities, suggesting that the early encounter between Europeans and Native Americans could have its roots in these earlier Welsh voyagers. The opening of the text introduces Prince Madog's journey as a response to political strife in North Wales, leading him to embark on an exploration westward. Williams outlines historical accounts and linguistic connections, indicating that certain indigenous tribes spoke Welsh and possessed artifacts reminiscent of Welsh Christianity. The narrative discusses various historical perspectives on American discovery, providing a framework for debating the authenticity of the Madog legend. The author emphasizes the importance of examining all available evidence, including ancient writings and traditions, to evaluate claims about pre-Columbian trans-oceanic expeditions, setting the stage for a detailed inquiry into the legitimacy of Madog’s voyages and their implications on the understanding of American history.
