[edit]

Domangart I of Dalriada, was the son of Fergus Mor Mac the Great. His grandfather was the King of Dalriada called Earc. The story goes that a famine had stricken the nation so several son's of Earc took off to find a better life and the ended up in western Scotland the part called Argyll where Fergus became the ruler of the Scots/Irish. Domangart may have not been a king but his son Gabran was. Fergus brought the stone of destiny with him on the trek to Scotland and they started a new life there where he united both countries into One. -Mary Beth Armentrout-204.42.16.157 18:32, 19 Nov 2004 (UTC)

Corcu Réti

[edit]

First of all, I have included the MacNeill article for those unfamiliar with the business of Irish tribal names. Whether this is in the article in which to discuss the mention of the Corcu Réti is another matter. The alternative use Dál/Corcu is not surprising, nor is the reoccurence of the form Réti terribly significant. Apparently Fraser makes a big deal out of it and now thinks of the Dál Riata as the inconvenient Corcu Réti and thinks he's really found something special. He hasn't, and probably hasn't read MacNeill. Dál and Corcu are interchangeable. DinDraithou (talk) 00:22, 16 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Titled incorrectly: should be Domangart mac Nissi

[edit]

Where is no record of a Domangart Reti. The annals record a Domangairt mac Nissi [poss. of Reti], never Domangart Reti:

U507.1 Bellum Arda Corann & mors Lugdach filii Loegaire, & ut alii dicunt Domhangart Mc. (Nisse) Reti secessit anno .xxxu.

T506.2 Bass Domanguirt maic Nissi righ Alban.

CS464 Kal. ii. Domangart Mac Nisi quievit.

U466.2 Domangart m. Nisi quieuit.

AClon509. — Brwidy m'Milcon K. of Pictland, & Dawangort m'Nissie, K. of Scotland, Dyed-foede hiec erratum est.

To add to the confusion, there is a Domangart mac Prete of Ui Echach na arda. He was the foster-father of Deaman mac Cairell (died 572) of Dal Araide, whose father was born before 489. It would seem possible that the Domangart who died in 507 could have been confused with the later Domangart mac Prete. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 147.1.235.120 (talk) 21:09, 11 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
