Felim mac Aedh Ua Conchobair (properly Felimid) (1293–1316) was King of Connacht in Ireland from 1310 to 1316. His father, Aedh Ó Conchobair, was killed in battle at Coill an Clochain by Aed Breifnech Ua Conchobair. His place was taken by Ruaidri mac Cathal Ua Conchobair who nevertheless ruled for less than a year; the annals laconically note in 1310 that ''Felim, the son of Hugh, son of Owen O'Conor, assumed the place of his father.'' Felim was killed at the Second Battle of Athenry at the head of a massive Irish army thought to comprise at least two and a half thousand men, mainly from Connacht, with allies from the midlands and Ulster. A son, Aedh mac Felim Ó Conchobair, would later become King of Connacht, as would his grandson, Tairdelbach mac Aedh Ua Conchobair. ==References== * ''Annals of Ulster'' at () at (University College Cork ) * ''Annals of the Four Masters'' at () at (University College Cork ) * ''Chronicum Scotorum'' at () at (University College Cork ) * Byrne, Francis John (2001), ''Irish Kings and High-Kings'', Dublin: Four Courts Press, ISBN 978-1-85182-196-9 * ''Gaelic and Gaelised Ireland'', Kenneth Nicols, 1972. * ''The Second Battle of Athenry'', Adrian James Martyn, East Galway News & Views, 2008 – 2009 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Fedlim Ó Conchobair」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
