Donnabhán mac Cathail

Ceannaire Uí Fiodhghinte de chuid na deichiú haoise ba ea  Donnabhán mac Cathail (bás 980)MacCotter and Begley. agus b'fhéidir fosta rí Uí Chairbre Aobhdha laistigh ann.  Dar leis na foinsí, ní raibh sé ach ina rí an chéad chinn, ach feictear a chlann ina cheannaí an dara cinn.  I dteannta sin, ina thásc don bhliain 980, glaoitear rí Reasadha air, teideal ar leith i n-annála Éireann.  Sinsear eapainmneach Uí Dhonnabháin is ea é.

Pearsa shuntasach is ea é sa dréacht bolscaireachta Cogad Gáedel re Gallaib (CGG). Bhí cáil Donnabhán amuigh agus é ina comhghuaillí lena athair chéile (mar a cheaptar), Íomhar Luimnigh, rí Lochlannach deireanach Luimnigh, agus le with Maol Muadh mac Brain, rí na Deasmhumhan, in aghaidh Dhál Chais agus iad ag teacht chun cinn faoi cheannas na ndeartháireacha, Mathúin mac Cinnéide, rí Chaisil, agus Brian Bóramha, Ardrí na hÉireann in am trátha.  Rinneadh rí Mumhan de Mhaol Muadh a bhí le tacaíocht Donnabháin idir na bliainta 976 go 978.  Le bua Dhál Cháis ámh, athraíodh go síoraí saol polaitiúil na hÉireann.
