Rónán mac Áeda [Fingal Rónáin]Rónán mac Áeda ... Fingal Rónáin
(supp. fl. 6th/7th century)
King of Leinster in the early Irish tale Fingal Rónáin, which tells how he had his son put to death for alleged sexual assaults on the king’s young wife (the son’s stepmother). It has been suggested that he was ultimately based on Rónán mac Colmáin, king of Leinster from the Uí Dúnlainge (e.g. by David Greene), or alternatively, on Rónán mac Áeda of the Uí Máil, bishop and brother of the king of Leinster.
