 |Title=The revolt of the Connachta
+|Description=One time, as Diarmait holds the feast of Tara, Curnán son of Áed son of Eochaid Tirmcharna <small>(ancestor of the Síl Máil Ruain in Connacht)</small> kills a man (anonymous). He secures for himself the protection (''commairce'') of Fergus and Domnall, two sons of Muirchertach mac Erca, who in turn place Curnán under the protection of the saint Colum Cille. Diarmait has Curnán executed all the same.
+Because of this, the Connachta rise up against Diarmait. Diarmait responds by ravaging Connacht as far as Cúil Sibrinne, near Cúil Dreimne, where he faces the opposing forces. The Connachta are joined here by Colum Cille with the northern Uí Néill; Fergus and Domnall, as well as their father Áed; Ainmire son of Sétna, king of the Cenél Chonaill; and Nindid mac Duach.
