Ailello Hui Daimine
Ailello hui Daimine (died 749) was the 20th King of Uà Maine. The Annals of Tigernach report of him ''"Bass Ailello h-ui Daimine, rÃg h-Úa Maine"'', though it does not provide the details or context of his death. He does not seem to appear in the genealogies and, besides an apparent relationship to king Dunchadh ua Daimhine (died 780), does not seem to have left any notable progeny.

UÃ Maine
U or u, is the twenty-first and sixth-to-last letter and fifth vowel letter of the Latin alphabet, used in the modern English alphabet, the alphabets of other western European languages and others worldwide. Its name in English is ''u'' (pronounced ), plural ''ues''. History U derives from the Semitic waw, as does F, and later, Y, W, and V. Its oldest ancestor goes to Egyptian hieroglyphics, and is probably from a hieroglyph of a mace or fowl, representing the sound v.html"_;"title="Voiced_labiodental_fricative.html"_;"title="nowiki/>Voiced_labiodental_fricative">v">Voiced_labiodental_fricative.html"_;"title="nowiki/>Voiced_labiodental_fricative">vor_the_sound_[Voiced_labial–velar_approximant.html" ;"title="Voiced_labiodental_fricative">v.html" ;"title="Voiced_labiodental_fricative.html" ;"title="nowiki/>Voiced labiodental fricative">v">Voiced_labiodental_fricative.html" ;"title="nowiki/>Voiced labiodental fricative">vor the sound [Voiced labial–velar approximant" ...

Annals Of Tigernach
The ''Annals of Tigernach'' ( abbr. AT, ga, Annála Tiarnaigh) are chronicles probably originating in Clonmacnoise, Ireland. The language is a mixture of Latin and Old and Middle Irish. Many of the pre-historic entries come from the 12th-century MS, Rawlinson B 502.Hughes, ''Early Christian Ireland: Introduction to the Sources'', pp. 99-162. However, the real importance of the chronicle is for the period 489–766, 973–1003 and 1018–1178. These three fragments survive from the 14th-century MS Rawlinson B 488. The coverage of the period 766 to 973 is lost, but is thought to survive in abbreviated form in the '' Chronicon Scottorum'' (abbr. CT). The latter is defective for the period 718 to 804, but as much of its content is derived from the hypothetical '' Chronicle of Ireland'' (itself partly derived from the '' Iona Chronicle''), of which the ''Annals of Ulster'' (abbr. AU) and ''Annals of Inisfallen'' (abbr. AI) are also derived, we have some idea of what the entries con ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Dunchadh Ua Daimhine
Dunchadh ua Daimhine, 23rd King of Uà Maine, died 780. Reign During his era, Dunchadh's kingdom endured border conflicts initiated by the Connachta, by the successive kings Donn Cothaid mac Cathail (died 773), Flaithrà mac Domnaill (died 777) and Artgal mac Cathail (died 791). The first notable incident was the battle of Achadh Liag (in Cluain Acha Liag, now called 'Killeroran' - the Uà Maine inauguration site) in 770: ''The battle of Achadh Liag was fought between the Ui Briuin and Ui Maine, wherein the Ui Maine were defeated.'' This was part of a wider conflict which would see the Uà Briúin Ai of the Connachta become the dominant power in the province, which would henceforth bear their name, Connacht. Ui Maine would, by the end of the following century, remain mainly independent but it marked the beginning of several centuries of being accorded the status of second or third-class state, by kingdoms such as the Kings of Connacht, the Earl of Ulster, the Clanricard ...

Cathal Maenmaighe
Cathal Maenmaighe (died 745) was the 19th King of Uà Maine. Cathal appears to have taken his name from TrÃcha Máenmaige. During his reign, the following events occurred in Connacht and Ireland * 739 - ''"The sea cast ashore a whale in Boirche, in the province of Ulster. Every one in the neighbourhood went to see it for its wondrousness. When it was slaughtered, three golden teeth were found in its head, each of which teeth contained fifty ounces. Fiachna, son of Aedh Roin, King of Ulidia, and Eochaidh, son of Breasal, chief of Ui Eathach Iveagh, sent a tooth of them to Beannchair, where it remained for a long time on the altar, to be seen by all in general."'' * 742 - ''"Comman of Ross, who was Abbot of Cluain Mic Nois, and eke a man full of the grace of God was he, died."'' * 743 - ''"Ships with their crews, were plainly seen in the sky this year."'' * 744 - ''"Cluain Fearta Brenainn (Clonfert) was burned."''

Nobility From County Galway
Nobility is a social class found in many societies that have an aristocracy. It is normally ranked immediately below royalty. Nobility has often been an estate of the realm with many exclusive functions and characteristics. The characteristics associated with nobility may constitute substantial advantages over or relative to non-nobles or simply formal functions (e.g., precedence), and vary by country and by era. Membership in the nobility, including rights and responsibilities, is typically hereditary and patrilineal. Membership in the nobility has historically been granted by a monarch or government, and acquisition of sufficient power, wealth, ownerships, or royal favour has occasionally enabled commoners to ascend into the nobility. There are often a variety of ranks within the noble class. Legal recognition of nobility has been much more common in monarchies, but nobility also existed in such regimes as the Dutch Republic (1581–1795), the Republic of Genoa (1005â ...

8th-century Irish Monarchs
The 8th century is the period from 701 ( DCCI) through 800 ( DCCC) in accordance with the Julian Calendar. The coast of North Africa and the Iberian Peninsula quickly came under Islamic Arab domination. The westward expansion of the Umayyad Empire was famously halted at the siege of Constantinople by the Byzantine Empire and the Battle of Tours by the Franks. The tide of Arab conquest came to an end in the middle of the 8th century.Roberts, J., '' History of the World'', Penguin, 1994. In Europe, late in the century, the Vikings, seafaring peoples from Scandinavia, begin raiding the coasts of Europe and the Mediterranean, and go on to found several important kingdoms. In Asia, the Pala Empire is founded in Bengal. The Tang dynasty reaches its pinnacle under Chinese Emperor Xuanzong. The Nara period begins in Japan.
