Sitric Cáech
Sitric Cáech or Sihtric Cáech or Sigtrygg Gále, ( , , died 927) was a Hiberno-Scandinavian Viking leader who ruled Dublin and then Viking Northumbria in the early 10th century. He was a grandson of Ímar and a member of the Uí Ímair. Sitric was most probably among those Vikings expelled from Dublin in 902, whereafter he may have ruled territory in the eastern Danelaw in England. In 917, he and his kinsman Ragnall ua Ímair sailed separate fleets to Ireland where they won several battles against local kings. Sitric successfully recaptured Dublin and established himself as king, while Ragnall returned to England to become King of Northumbria. In 919, Sitric won a victory at the Battle of Islandbridge over a coalition of local Irish kings who aimed to expel the Uí Ímair from Ireland. Six Irish kings were killed in the battle, including Niall Glúndub, overking of the Northern Uí Néill and High King of Ireland. In 920 Sitric left Dublin for Northumbria, with his kinsm ...

Sitric II Of Northumbria
Sitric () was a Viking leader who may have co-ruled Viking Northumbria in the 10th century. No contemporary texts mention Sitric and his existence is only evidenced by coins bearing his name which were minted at York in c. 942. Biography The evidence for the existence of Sitric is a handful of coins minted at York bearing the inscription (King Sitric). These coins have been dated to 942 and they bear similarities to coins of Olaf Cuaran and Ragnall Guthfrithson, two kinsmen who are known to have ruled Northumbria in the 940s. Two designs of coinage are known featuring Sitric's name. The first features a small cross on both sides, and the second features a triquetra on one side and a triangular banner on the other. No mention of Sitric is made in contemporary texts. Olaf Guthfrithson ruled Northumbria from 939 until his death in 941. Downham has suggested that between Olaf's death and the arrival of Ragnall in York, perhaps in the latter part of 943, Northumbria was co-ruled ...
