In addition to the eleven tales listed above, a twelfth story, The Tale of Taliesin, is sometimes included as part of the Mabinogion (most notably in the earliest and most famous English translation, by Charlotte Guest). However, it was written down much later than the other texts (in the mid sixteenth century; versions of the other tales date to as much as five hundred years earlier).
