Overview
The Cauldron is an ancient magical object of great power originating as Pair Dadeni in Welsh mythology. It features prominently in 2000AD, where Sláine uses it to bring the dead back to life and feed the many. Avagddu also emerges from it to attack Niamh.
In Seven Soldiers it is a treasure from lost Camelot. Don Vincenzo, a former member of the Newsboy Army, owns it until he is murdered for it. The Cauldron is then captured by the Sheeda Queen, Gloriana.
