Erb of Gwent

King Erb (also, in Latin, Urbanus) (c.524 – c.555) was the king of Gwent and Glywysing, kingdoms in the south of Wales in the Early Middle Ages.

[1] According to later genealogies, Erb was the son of King Meurig ap Caradog's son, Erbig.

Nothing is known of his life.

After Erb's death in the mid-6th century, his kingdom was divided between his young sons.

Nynnio became king of Gwent and Glywysing and Peibio became the ruler of Ergyng.
