It does not appear , I thinly by the Triades , that the whole of Caractacus ' s family embraced Christianity at Rome * or even that he himself did so : a son and a daughte / of his are mentioned * as well as his father , as very eminent christians . The name of the son was Cylliru . and that of
the daughter Eigen ; both classed among the British ^ Saints * That son is said to be the grandfather of Lleurwg , commonly called King Lucius , who greatly exerted himself at a later period , to promote Christianity in Britain , or at least in Siluria , the country of his ancestors , and where he himself also
reigned by the favour or permission of the Romans , Even the famous King Arthur likewise appears to have been a descendant of this same illustrious family . Eigen , the above mentioned daughter of Caractacus , is said to have been married to a British chieftain , who was lord of Gaer Sarllog , the present Old Sarutn-. It seems doubtful whether
Caractacus himself ever returned to his native country . The rest of the family that staid behind might be chiefly females ; and Claudia , who has been said to be one of his daughters ^ has been mentioned by some as the wife of Pudens , a Roman senator and the mother of Linus ^ whom the apostle Paul mentions along with them , as was before observed . ( Tq be concluded in our next . )
