Dyfnwal III of Strathclyde : ウィキペディア英語版 | Dyfnwal III of Strathclyde Dyfnwal III (Gaelic: ''Domnall mac Eógain'', English: "Donald") was ruler of the Kingdom of Strathclyde (died 975) for some period in the mid tenth century, and the son of one of his predecessors, Owen I of Strathclyde. Dyfnwal is almost certainly the king visited by Cathróe of Metz. The ''vita'' of the latter saint states that Cathróe was Dyfnwal's relative.〔Alan Orr Anderson, ''Early Sources of Scottish History: AD 500–1286'', 2 Vols, (Edinburgh, 1922), vol. i, p . 441; see also David Dumville, "St Cathróe of Metz and the Hagiography of Exoticism," in ''Irish Hagiography: Saints and Scholars'', ed. John Carey et al. (Dublin, 2001), pp. 172–188〕 The visit must have happened between 941 and 946, meaning that Dyfnwal may have been reigning as early as 941.〔David Dumville, ""St Cathróe of Metz", p. 172 & n. 2〕 This fact presents historiographical problems, because the ''Anglo-Saxon Chronicle'' states that in 945 king Eadmund of England "harried all Cumbria and leased it to Máel Coluim, king of Scots, on the condition that he be his helper both on land and sea".〔''Anglo-Saxon Chronicle'', MS A, B, C, D, s.a. 945; trs. in Alan Orr Anderson, ''Scottish Annals from English Chroniclers: AD 500–1286'', (London, 1908), republished, Marjorie Anderson (ed.) (Stamford, 1991), p. 74〕 The only possibilities are that, firstly, one source is wrong; secondly, that Strathclyde was a divided kingdom; thirdly, that Malcolm I of Scotland (Máel Coluim mac Domnaill) gave the kingdom to Dyfnwal as soon as he received it, with Cathróe visiting the following year; or that Máel Coluim simply became the overlord of Dyfnwal. It is perhaps worthy of note that Edmund I's campaign in Cumbria is associated with the downfall of Dunmail, said to be the "last king of Cumbria". He is styled ''Domnall m. Eogain, rí Bretan'' (king of the Britons) in the ''Annals of Ulster'', which notes his death in 975 on pilgrimage.〔''Annals of Ulster'', s.a. 975.2, (here )〕 The Welsh source known as the ''Brut y Tywysogion'', which calls him ''Dunguallon'', confirms that Dyfnwal did indeed set off on pilgrimage to Rome〔(here (pdf) )〕 It is possible that Dyfnwal resigned the kingship sometime before 971.〔Alan MacQuarrie, "The Kings of Strathclyde", in A. Grant & K.Stringer (eds.) ''Medieval Scotland: Crown, Lordship and Community, Essays Presented to G.W.S. Barrow'', (Edinburgh, 1993), pp. 15-6〕 Dyfnwal must have left on pilgrimage a good time before his death, because Florence of Worcester tells us that in 973 the king of the Cumbrians was Máel Coluim I of Strathclyde; moreover, it is Dyfnwal's son Amdarch who was named by Scottish sources as the killer of the Scottish king Cuilén in 971.〔see Alan Orr Anderson, ''Early Sources'', vol. i, p. 476, n. 1〕 ==See also==
