- Cantref Mawr was a cantref in south-west Wales. It was of strategic importance in medieval Wales as the location of the main seat of the princes of Deheubarth at Dinefwr. Cantref Mawr means "The Great Cantref". Each cantref in medieval Wales was divided into cwmwdau, and a typical cantref would be made up of two or three cwmwd. Cantref Mawr was made up of seven cwmwdau, which made it one of the largest cantrefs in Wales. Cantref Mawr was an upland area, bounded by the rivers Tywi, Teifi and Gwili. The area at this period was covered in dense scrub which caused difficulties for invading armies, so that the Cantref Mawr often provided a secure refuge for the princes of Deheubarth when facing an invasion.

- Cantref Mawr était un cantref au sud-ouest du Pays de Galles. Il était d'une importance stratégique au Moyen Âge car il était le siège des princes du Deheubarth à Dinefwr et il formait un obstacle naturel afin de bloquer une armée ennemie. Cantref Mawr signifie littéralement le « grand cantref ». Chaque cantref dans le Pays de Galles médiéval était divisé en cwmwd (généralement deux ou trois). Cantref Mawr en comportait sept, ce qui en faisait l'un des plus grands cantrefs de Galles. Cantref Mawr était un territoire surélevé, bordé des rivières Tywi, Teifi et . À cette époque, il était recouvert de broussailles denses qui gênait les envahisseurs, c'est pourquoi Cantref Mawr fournit souvent un refuge protégé pour les princes du Deheubarth quand ils étaient attaqués.
