St Cadoc made 7 pilgrimages to Rome and St David was Bishop in Jerusalem. They spoke Latin and Greek as well as Welsh and Saxon. If you email me at maryinmonmouth@googlemail.com I can give you extra information about how these came to be so important and why the Normans actually took them so seriously. Anyone who emails will get a reply.
