Niall mac Conaill
Niall mac Conaill( died 778) was King of South Brega of the Uí Chernaig sept of the Síl n Áedo Sláine branch of the southern Ui Neill.
He was the son of Conall Grant mac Cernaig( died 718) who had contended for the rule of all Brega in the 710's.
He ruled in south Brega from 771 to 778.
Upon the death of Coirpre mac Fogartaig of the Uí Chernaig sept in 771 the rule of Brega was recovered by the northern sept of Uí Chonaing based at Cnogba( Knowth) in the person of Congalach mac Conaing( died 778).
Niall became ruler of Deiscirt Breg or southern Brega.
Niall represented a branch of the Uí Chernaig sept called the Síl Conaill Graint which were based at Calatrium( Galtrim), whereas the main line of Uí Chernaig represented by the sons of the high king Fogartach mac Néill( died 724) were based at Lagore.
The sons of Fogartach had dominated southern Brega since 737 and a claimant arose in Cummascach mac Fogartaig to challenge Niall's rule.
In 777 the Battle of Calatrium was fought between Niall and Cummascach in which the vassal king Échtgus mac Baeth of the Deisi Brega was slain.
Niall was an old king and offered no threat to the high king Donnchad Midi( died 797) who was imposing his authority on Brega at this time.
he was not involved in the Battle of Forchalad in 778 where Congalach of Brega was slain fighting Donnchad.
Niall is called king of Deiscirt Breg in his death obit.
His sons Conall mac Néill( died 815) and Diarmait mac Néill( died 826) were also Kings of South Brega.
Conaire Cóem
Conaire Cóem(" the beautiful"), son of Mug Láma, son of Coirpre Crou- Chend, son of Coirpre Firmaora, son of Conaire Mór, was, according to medieval Irish legend and historical tradition, the 111th High King of Ireland.
He came to power on the death of his father- in- law Conn Cétchathach, and ruled for seven or eight years, at the end of which he was killed by Nemed, son of Sroibcenn, in the battle of Gruitine.
He was succeeded by Conn's son Art.
Place of birth
The place of birth( POB) or birthplace is the place where a person was born.
This place is often used in legal documents, together with name and date of birth, to uniquely identify a person.
As a general rule with respect to passports, the place of birth is determined to be the country that currently has" sovereignty" over the actual place of birth, regardless of when the birth actually occurred.
The place of birth is not necessarily the place where the parents of the new baby live.
If the baby is born in a hospital in another place, that place is the place of birth.
In many countries, this also means that the government requires that the birth of the new baby is registered in the place of birth.
Some countries place less or no importance on the place of birth, instead using alternative geographical characteristics for the purpose of identity documents.
For example, Sweden has used the concept of" födelsehemortdomicile of birth") since 1947.
This means that the domicile of the baby's mother is the registered place of birth.
The location of the maternity ward or other physical birthplace is considered unimportant.
Similarly, Switzerland uses the concept of" Heimatortlieu d'origineluogo d'origineplace of origin" in German, French and Italian respectively).
A child born to Swiss parents is automatically assigned the place of origin of the parent with the same last name, so the child either gets their mother's or father's place of origin.
A child born to one Swiss parent and one foreign parent acquires the place of origin of their Swiss parent.
In a Swiss passport and identity card, the holder's place of origin is stated, not their place of birth.
In some countries( primarily in the Americas), the place of birth automatically determines the nationality of the baby, a practice often referred to by the Latin phrase" jus soli".
Almost all countries outside the Americas instead attribute nationality based on the nationality( ies) of the baby's parents( referred to as" jus sanguinis").
There can be some confusion regarding the place of birth if the birth takes place in an unusual way: when babies are born on an airplane or at sea, difficulties can arise.
The place of birth of such a person depends on the law of the countries involved, which include the nationality of the plane or ship, the nationality( ies) of the parents and/ or the location of the plane or ship( if the birth occurs in the territorial waters or airspace of a country).
Some administrative forms may request the applicant's" country of birth".
It is important to determine from the requester whether the information requested refers to the applicant's" place of birth" or" nationality at birth".
For US citizens born abroad who under the US Constitution acquire US citizenship at the time of birth, the nationality at birth will be USA( American), while the place of birth would be the country in which the actual birth takes place.
Conaire Cóem
Conaire Cóem(" the beautiful"), son of Mug Láma, son of Coirpre Crou- Chend, son of Coirpre Firmaora, son of Conaire Mór, was, according to medieval Irish legend and historical tradition, the 111th High King of Ireland.
He came to power on the death of his father- in- law Conn Cétchathach, and ruled for seven or eight years, at the end of which he was killed by Nemed, son of Sroibcenn, in the battle of Gruitine.
He was succeeded by Conn's son Art.
Motherland (disambiguation)
Motherland is the place of one's birth, the place of one's ancestors, or the place of origin of an ethnic group.
Motherland may also refer to:
Sennedjem
The Ancient Egyptian artisan Sennedjem lived in Set Maat( translated as" The Place of Truth"), contemporary Deir el- Medina, on the west bank of the Nile, opposite Thebes, during the reigns of Seti I and Ramesses II.
Sennedjem had the title" Servant in the Place of Truth".
He was buried along with his wife, Iyneferti, and family in a tomb in the village necropolis.
His tomb was discovered January 31, 1886.
When Sennedjem's tomb was found, in it there was regular furniture from his home, including a stool and a bed, which he actually used when he was alive.
His titles included Servant in the Place of Truth, meaning that he worked on the excavation and decoration of the nearby royal tombs.
Coirpre mac Fogartaig
Coirpre mac Fogartaig (died 771) was a King of Brega of the Uí Chernaig sept of Lagore of the Síl nÁedo Sláine branch of the southern Ui Neill.
He was the son of the high king Fogartach mac Néill (died 724).
He is not listed in the poem on the Síl nÁedo Sláine rulers in the "Book of Leinster", however at his death obit in the annals for 771 he is called King of Brega.
His accession to the rule of the Uí Chernaig sept in south Brega cannot be dated with certainty.
His brother Fergus mac Fogartaig (died 751) is called King of South Brega at his death obit.
The annals then record the deaths of his cousin Domnall mac Áeda in 759 and his brother Finsnechta mac Fogartaig in 761 with no titles.
As for his accession to all of Brega, the death of the Brega king Dúngal mac Amalgado of the rival northern Uí Chonaing sept of Cnogba (Knowth) occurred in 759.
Coirpre is first mentioned in the annals with regard to the death of his son Cellach, who was killed by robbers in 767.
Then Coirpre is driven into exile in 769 by Donnchad Midi (died 797) of the rival southern Ui Neill branch of Clann Cholmáin based in Mide.
A battle had been fought between the men of Mide and Brega in 766.
The year after Coirpre's exile the men of southern Brega were defeated at the Battle of Bolgg Bóinne in 770 and two members of the sept were slain, Cernach mac Flainn (a grandson of Fogartach) and Flaithbertach mac Flainn as well as the vassal king Uarchride mac Baeth of the Deisi Brega.
This was in conjunction with a campaign of Donnchad Midi versus Leinster and may have been part of that or Donnchad may have defeated the men of southern Brega on is way home.
Coirpre then reappears in the year 771 at his death obit with the title King of Brega.
Where Was I
" Where Was I?" may refer to:
Túathal Máelgarb
Túathal mac Cormaic( died 540s), called Túathal Máelgarb, was said to be a grandson of Coirpre mac Néill.
He was High King of Ireland.
In the earliest accounts he appears to have been regarded as the man who completed the conquest of what would later be Brega for the descendants of Niall of the Nine Hostages.
While later genealogies make Túathal the son of Cormac Cáech, son of Coirpre, son of Niall of the Nine Hostages, this is at odds with the account of the 7th century life of Saint Patrick by Tírechán, which claims that Patrick cursed Coirpre and his descendants so that none would ever be king of Tara.
Later hagiographies accounted for this discrepancy by having Túathal excluded from Patrick's curse.
There is only a single significant entry in the Irish annals concerning Túathal.
This is a report of his victory in a battle against the Ciannacht" at Luachair between the two estuaries", perhaps in 535.
Luachair is a common place name, and it is uncertain which two rivers are concerned.
This victory is believed to have established the dominance of Niall's descendants over the Ciannacht and over the plain of Brega.
While these entries in the Irish annals are not based on a contemporary record, the language used suggests that they are very early, perhaps dating from the end of the 6th century.
Túathal is reported to have been killed in the 540s.
Later glosses to the annals, and tales concerning Diarmait mac Cerbaill and Saint Ciarán of Clonmacnoise, add more detail, but are likely to be much later traditions.
According to these, Túathal was attempting to have Diarmait banished, but instead Túathal was killed by Diarmait's uterine half- brother—according to some versions, his adoptive kinsman—" Máelmor Ua Machí" or" Máelmor mac Argadaín".
Máelmor himself was killed on the spot.
Fogartach mac Néill
Fogartach Mac'Artain (died 724), sometimes called Fogartach ua Cernaich, was an Irish king who is reckoned a High King of Ireland.
He belonged to the Uí Chernaig sept of the Síl nÁedo Sláine branch of the southern Uí Néill.
He was King of Brega and was the son of Niall mac Cernaig Sotal (died 701) and great-grandson of the high king Diarmait mac Áedo Sláine (died 665).
