In the original 11th-century manuscript, the subject of the entry was simply called righ Lochlann ("the king of Lochlainn"), which more than likely referred to Ímar, whose death is not otherwise noted in the Fragmentary Annals.
No manuscrito orixinal do século XI simplemente cítase ao "righ Lochlann" (rei de Lochlann), que se pode referir máis concretamente a Ímar, cuxa morte non se menciona nos anais fragmentados.
