A caerdroia is a Welsh turf maze, usually in the sevenfold Cretan labyrinth design. They were created by shepherds on hilltops and were apparently the setting for ritual dances, the nature of which has been lost. At the centre of each caerdroia was a small hillock—in Welsh, twmpath. A gathering for folk dancing in Wales is still called a twmpath dawns. It is a typical labyrinth of Welsh but there is a specimen in Italy to Petrella Tifernina discovered by the historian Mario Ziccardi. This specimen is the only one in the Mediterranean area for now.

  • Una caerdroia è un labirinto, solitamente erboso, tipico del Galles, il cui percorso unicursale (un percorso lineare non caratterizzato da vicoli ciechi) solitamente riprende quello del labirinto cretese a sette pieghe (anche chiamato a sette corridoi). Creati dai pastori sulle cime delle colline, pare fossero l'ambientazione di danze rituali, la cui natura è andata perduta. Al centro di ogni caerdroia c'era una piccola collinetta, chiamata in gallese twmpath: un raduno di danze popolari in Galles è ancora chiamato twmpath dawns. Esiste in Italia un esemplare di caerdroia a Petrella Tifernina, scoperto dallo storico Mario Ziccardi, attualmente unico esemplare nell'area mediterranea. (it)
