Ustig is a 6th-century Pre-Congregational Saint of Wales.
He was a child of King Caw of Strathclyde,[1] and according to Frederick Holweck, the brother of Aldate, bishop of Gloucester.[2] He appears as "Iustic" in the tale Culhwch and Olwen.[3]
Baring-Gould mentions another Ustig, descended from Cadell Ddyrnllwg, who was a confessor, along with Dyfrig and Eldad, at Cor Garmon at Llancarfan.[3]
