Vortipor is one of the kings denounced by Gildas. His memorial stone has been found in Dyfed. There is also discussion of Vortipor in Molly Miller's 1978 "Date-Guessing and Dyfed" Studia Celtica 12/13: 33-61.

The Irish dynasty of Dyfed took on Romanized names almost from the time they moved to Britain.
