Imacallaim na Mórígna fri Coin Culaindform undefined
Episode in Táin bó Cúailnge.
Imshlige Glendamnach
prose
An early Irish tale of the Ulster Cycle referred to in both recension I and II of Táin bó Cúailnge as well as version B of the Middle Irish tale-lists, whose gnath-scéla section includes it along with several known episodes of the Táin. It seemingly dealt with a large battle at Glendamain or Glendomain/Glenn Domain. The battle described in the brief episode Bángleó Rochada is identified as such in recension I (YBL, but not in Stowe), if renamed in recension II. There are hints, however, of an alternative narrative that did not entirely find its way into the extant texts of the Táin.
