Aonghas Mór
Aonghas Mór (Anglicized: "Angus the Elder" or "Great"), also known as Aonghas a Íle ("Angus of Islay") and Aonghas mac Domhnaill (Modern: ''Aonghas MacDhòmhnaill''; Anglicized: "Angus MacDonald" or "Angus, Donald's son"), was the son of Domhnall mac Raghnaill, eponymous progenitor of Clan Donald.
Aonghas Mór has been called "the first MacDonald" by one historian,〔Sellar, "Hebridean Sea-Kings", p. 207.〕 namely because he was the first of the dynasty created by his father to rule Islay. Islay was the centre of the lordship of both Aonghas and his father; and according to a contemporary praise-poem, the realm Aonghas inherited from Domhnall included "every house from Mull to Kintyre" (''gach teach ò Mhuile go Maoil'').〔Text and translation, Wilson & Bateman, ''Duanaire Na Sracaire'', p. 83.〕
==Life==
According to later Gaelic tradition, he was fostered by Dubh-Sidhe, alleged progenitor of the "MacDuffie" (now ''MacDhubhaich'') kindred of Colonsay, undoubtedly a tradition that served to connect the two kindreds at the time it was developed.〔 He appears granting a charter to Paisley Abbey which can be dated between 1241 and 1249.〔Munro & Munro, ''Acts'', p. 280.〕 The first extant reference to Aonghas as "Lord of Islay" dates to 1256.〔Woolf, "Age of the Sea-Kings'", p. 108.〕 In 1263, during the war between Haakon IV of Norway and Alexander III of Scotland, the Norwegians invaded Aonghas' territory and forced him to join them.〔Sellar, "Hebridean Sea-Kings", p. 205; Woolf, "Age of the Sea-Kings'", p. 108〕 Aonghas switched back to the Scottish side in the following year, sending his son Alexander Óg as a hostage to the king.〔 Much of the remainer of his life is mysterious. He was one of the magnates who in 1284 recognised the right of Alexander III's granddaughter, Margaret, Maid of Norway, to succeed to the throne;〔''Foedera, p 228〕 he appears in documents as late as July 1292.〔 He died on Islay in either 1294 or 1295, and was buried in Iona.〔Munro & Munro, ''Acts'', pp. 280–1.〕
