Áed mac Cináeda (died 878) was a son of Cináed mac Ailpín ("Kenneth MacAlpin"). He became king of the Picts in 877 when he succeeded his brother Constantine I. He was nicknamed Áed of the White Flowers, the Wing-footed ((ラテン語:alipes)) or the white-foot ((ラテン語:albipes)). ==Sources== The ''Chronicle of the Kings of Alba'' says of Áed: "Edus () held the same (the kingdom ) for one year. The shortness of his reign has bequeathed nothing memorable to history. He was slain in the civitas of Nrurim." Nrurim is unidentified. The Annals of Ulster say that in 878: "Áed mac Cináeda, king of the Picts, was killed by his associates."〔(Calise, J. M. P., ''Pictish Sourcebook'', Greenwood Publishing Group, 2002, ISBN 9780313322952 )〕 Tradition, reported by George Chalmers in his ''Caledonia'' (1807), and by the New Statistical Account (1834–1845), has it that the early-historic mound of the Cunninghillock by Inverurie is the burial place of Áed. This is based on reading Nrurim as ''Inruriu''. A longer account is interpolated in Andrew of Wyntoun's ''Orygynale Cronykil of Scotland''. This says that Áed reigned one year and was killed by his successor Giric in Strathallan and other king lists have the same report. It is uncertain which, if any, of the ''Prophecy of Bercháns kings should be taken to be Áed. William Forbes Skene presumed that the following verses referred to Áed: 129. Another king will take (); small is the profit that he does not divide. Alas for Scotland thenceforward. His name will be the Furious. Áed's son, Constantín mac Áeda, became king in 900. The idea that Domnall II of Strathclyde was a son of Áed, based on a confusing entry in the Chronicle of the Kings of Alba, is contested. 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「Áed mac Cináeda」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
