Congal Cáech : ウィキペディア英語版 | Congal Cáech
Congal Cáech (also Congal Cláen) was a king of the Cruithne of Dál nAraidi, in modern Ulster, from around 626 to 637. He was king of Ulster from 627–637 and, according to some sources, High King of Ireland. ==Sources== The sources for Congal's life and times are limited and generally date from long after his death. The Irish annals are for this period believed to be largely based on an annal kept on the island of Iona, where Saint Columba had founded a monastery in the middle 6th century. These annals survive only in later copies. Of these, the ''Annals of Ulster'' and the ''Annals of Tigernach'' are generally considered to be the most reliable and representative of the original material. Congal does not appear directly in Adomnán's ''Life of Saint Columba'', another early source for Irish history, but a number of his contemporaries do and it supplies some context for events. He is mentioned in the Early Irish Law tract ''Bechbretha''—on beekeeping—written in the later 7th century; this purports to explain Congal's epithets. He also appears later and less reliable materials such as verse and prose tales, including the ''Cath Maige Rátha'' (The Battle of Moira) and ''Fled Dúin na nGéd'' (The Feast of Dún na nGéd, literally The Feast at the Fort of the Geese), both of which date from the Middle Irish period, perhaps the early 10th century for the ''Cath Maige Rátha'' and the 11th or 12th, perhaps later, for ''Fled Dúin na nGéd''. Those genealogies which include Congal are contradictory.
