Ailill Ólomm <strong>Ailill Aulom</strong> (ass. time-frame: Irish legendary history) – king of Munster; reputed ancestor of the Éoganacht and Dál Cais; a prominent figure in various king-tales, such as those revolving around the Battle of Mag Mucrama. <small>(link to subject index)</small>. Cormac (Cas) mac Ailella Óloimm <strong>Cormac mac Ailella Óloimm</strong> (ass. time-frame: Ailill Ólomm,IdÉogan Mór mac Ailella) – son of Ailill Ólomm and brother of Éogan, the eponymous ancestor of the Éoganachta. His appearance in the sources or that of his epithet <i>Cas(s)</i> has been related to the rise of the Dál Cais in the tenth century at the expense of the Éoganachta: by grafting an ancestor of their own to the Éoganacht genealogy, it sought to bolster rival claims to the kingship of Munster. <small>(link to subject index)</small>.
