CynanapHywel ruled 999 1005 was a Prince of Kingdom of Gwynedd Gwynedd , one of the kingdoms or principalities of medieval Wales . After the death in 999 of Maredudd ab Owain who had seized Gwynedd from the line of Idwal Foel , the rule of Gwynedd returned to the original dynasty in the form of Idwal s great grandson, CynanapHywel.
