Beli Mawr (Beli the Great) was a Welsh ancestor deity. He was the consort of Don and the father of Caswallawn, Arianrhod, Lludd and Llefelys. Several royal lines in medieval Wales traced their ancestry to him.
He is almost certainly derived from the Celtic god Belenus. He appears in Geoffrey of Monmouth's History of the Kings of Britain as Heli.
