Comgán Mac Dá Cherda
Comgán Mac Dá Cherda
(fl. first half of the 7th century)
Poet and fool (óinmit) in Irish literature; a son of Máel Ochtraig (king of the Déisi Muman) and a contemporary of Cummíne Fota. The name Mac Dá Cherda would mean ‘Son of Two Arts’, but seeing as it may go back to an original Moccu Cherda (as suggested by Jackson and Ó Coileáin) it is perhaps best spelled conservatively, without lengthening in Da.

Cnucha Cnoc os cionn Life
form undefined
Irish poem which has come down as a shorter version (6 st.) in Dinnshenchas Érenn dealing with the origin of the place-name Cnucha. A considerably longer one (64 st.) is attributed to Caílte in Agallamh bheag. Here the first 7 stanzas contain much overlap with the shorter version but then continues at some length with the kings of Ireland, with Finn and with Caílte’s present.
