300 - 400 AD
312 AD 90.Conall Each Luath - of the Fleet Steeds was born this year ,who was a son of 89.Lewy / Lughaidh Mean - of the Irish Sea, the future Heberian King of Thomond / Northern Munster descended paternally from 85.Cormac Cass - of the Curly Hair who had been the 2nd King of Munster and the 1st King of Northern Munster / Thomond, 85.Cormac Cass had also been the second oldest son of 84,Ailill Oluimm the 1st King of Munster descended from *37,Eber Fionn (Heberians.)
315 AD. 89.Lewy Mean the Heberian King of Munster took over the Tuadh Mhumhain in Thomond / Northern Munster and crossed over the River Shannon to the west into the south - eastern part of what was then Sreng's Fifth, which was later to become the Connacht Province, known now as Co. Clare, which is today recognized as part of the north - west of the Munster Province, although it is geographically still a part of Connacht. He was to secure the territory there in what would become later on in the 5th Century physically part of the Heremonian Dal Cuinn southern Ui Fiachrach Aidhne kingdom in Southern Connacht, from the Fir Bolg Septs who were in control there at this time whose territory was centred on Magh Adhair, as sword land. He then basically joined it to the Munster Province although it was physically on the western side of the River Shannon in Southern Connacht, and from that time on the Heberian Dal gCais Sept having won the eastern part of Co. Clare previously from the south of Connacht, as sword land, would not pay tribute for it to anyone. This would lead on to a terrible disaster in the 7th Century AD when 98.Guaire the Heremonian southern Ui Fiachrach 14th King of Connacht would try to return the territory there in Aidhne back to Connacht, and his Cenel Guaire Sept would be decimated because of this in a disastrous battle.
322 AD. *87.Fiacha
Sraibhtine the
Heremonian

87.Eochaid
/ Eochy
Doimhlen, in a
battle at Dubh - Chomar
near
Tailten / Teltown
in Co. Meath, as
they had been advised by their Druid that, this was the only way they
would ever inherit the male line to the Heremonian Kingship of Tara
/
Ireland. The Battle of Dubh Chomar
in which he was killed was at Crioch Ros in
Breagh / Brega
in Co. Meath
in the south - east

had occurred while his son,
*88.Murray
/ Muireadach
Tireach, who was his personal Champion, was away
elsewhere.
322 - 326 AD
325 AD - 335 AD. 90.Conall Each Luath - of the Fleet Steeds, a son of 89.Lewy Meann the Heberian King of Munster, was to become the new King of Tuadh Mhumhain / Thomond / Northern Munster, which then took in the territory in the east of Co. Clare, Northern Co. Limerick, Northern Co. Tipperary and Co. Waterford. It's boundaries would run from the Arran Islands off the coast of Co. Galway to the Eibline Mountain near Cashel in Co. Tipperary then to Cairn Fearadhaigh / Knockaine in Co. Limerick and from Leim Cuchulainn / Cuchulainn's Leap / Loop Head at the mouth of the River Shannon in Co. Clare to the Sliabh Dala mountains in Ossory on the border of Co. Tipperary, Co. Kilkenny to Co. Laois taking in Co. Clare and Co. Limerick and the greater part of Co. Tipperary. In more modern times Thomond would later be mainly confined to Co. Clare. 90.Conall - of the Fleet Steeds was to have 2 sons, 91. Enda / Eanna Arighthach, and;
91.Cas his eldest son who was by now descended 6 generations from 85.Cormac Cass - of the Curly Hair his ancestor who had been the previous 2nd King of Munster and 1st King of Northern Munster / Thomond, who had been the second oldest son of 84.Ailill Oluimm the 1st King of Munster descended from *37.Eber Fionn.

327 / 329 AD. The Heremonian Dal Cuinn 3 Colla brothers returned to Ireland with a group of 27 of their followers and went to their kinsman, *88.Murray Tireach the 122nd King of Tara / Ireland, acting once again under the instructions of their Druid, to threaten him, so that the kin slaying / finghal might also then be on him if he killed any of them, but instead he forgave them and made them his Collas / Champions.
331 AD. Seeing the numbers of his
3 Colla kinsmen, growing stronger,
*88.Murray
Tireach the
Dal Cuinn 122nd King of Tara / Ireland
advised them to go further to the north in Ireland and seek out territory there for their own
Dal Cuinn 3 Colla
Family Septs, and once there they were to found the Heremonian
Dal Cuinn
kingdom
that was to become
Orghialla
/ Oriel in Southern Ulster
and in the adjoining Co. Louth
in the north - east of
Northern
Although Ulidia was originally the whole of the Ulster Province, it would now be confined to the territories in the east of Ulster now called Ulaid. which would give its name to Ulster, including Co. Down and a great part of Co. Antrim from Iubhar / Newry , Carlingford Bay and the Mountains of Mourne to the Slieve Mis mountain in the Barony of Co. Antrim in the south and south - west of parts of Co. Antrim, the districts along the shore of Loch Neagh and Belfast Loch, Carrickfergus and the Peninsula of Island Magee to Larne and then westward to the River Bann. The remaining part of Co. Antrim later became the Heremonian Ui Cobhthaigh Ui Conaire kingdom of the Dal Riada (People of Cairbre Riada who would later also expand also into Argyle (Land of the Gael) in the Scottish Highlands only 13 mile across the Irish Sea.
335 AD - 350 AD. 91.Cas was to be the Heberian King of Tuadh Mhumhain / Thomond / Northern Munster, who was the son of 90.Conall Each Luath - of the Fleet Steeds, and he was to have 12 sons of his own who were all to become the direct male line ancestors of the Dal gCais / Dalcassian (The People of 91.Cas) Septs / Family branches) who were to originally have their various territories in Co. Clare in the north - west of the Munster Province.
356 AD. *88.Murray Tireach the Heremonian Dal Cuinn 122nd King of Tara / Ireland,
357 AD *91.Caelbhadh the Irian Dal nAraidi King of Ulaid and 123rd King of Tara / Ireland, who had his territory in the north - east of the Ulster Province was killed this year by *89.Eochy Mugmedon / Eochaidh Muigh Mheadhoin - the Lord of Slaves the son of *88.Murray Tireach the previous Heremonian Dal Cuinn 122nd King of Tara / Ireland,.
357 AD - 365 AD
*89.Eochy
Mugmedon
became the
124th King of
365 AD *89.Eochy
Mugmedon the
Heremonian Dal Cuinn
124th King of
Tara / Ireland died a natural death at Tara in the east of
Northern Leinster, who was the son of
*88.Murray
Tireach,
the previous
122nd King of
Although 90.Brion
was the oldest son, he was still too young at this time
to be
King,
so 89.Mongfind used her influence to ensure
that her brother,
*89.Criffan
/ Crimthann
was to be invested as the 125th King of
Tara
/ Ireland, so that
90.Brion on reaching maturity
could follow on after him.
*89.Criffan was to be the first
King of Ireland from the
Heberian male
line
of
*37.Eber Fionn since
168 BC, when
*74.Duach
Dalta Deagdhaidh
had been the
91st
King of Tara /
Erinn
who was then the last one from the
Heberian male line. There would not be another
Heberian King of
Ireland
after *89.Criffan
until 1004 AD when *105.Brian
Boru
- of the Tributes would become the Heberian Dal gCais
175th High King.
89.Mongfind's plan of
putting her brother forward
until her oldest son, 90.Brion was to come of age
was to go astray as
*86.Eochy
Mugmedon had
previously decreed that he wanted his
fifth son,
*90.Niall,
who was not her son, to be the future
King of
365 - 376 AD *89.Criffan / Crimthann was to be the Heberian Eoghanacht 125th King of Tara / Ireland, who was a son of 88.Lare Fidach a previous King of Munster who had been one of the 3 sons of 87.Ailill Fland Bec / Oilioll Flann Beag, who had been the one to carry the Eoghanacht male line forward from 86.Fiacha Muilleathan, the only son of 85.Eoghan Mor, the ancestor of the Eoghanachta Septs, to the Kingship of Munster. 87.Ailiill Fland Bec who had been the Heberian Eoghanacht King of Munster for 30 years also had a brother, Ailill / Oilioll Mor. 88.Lewy / Luigthech a brother to 88.Lare Fidach was also to be the father of 89.Conal Corc who was to become the 1st Eoghanacht King of Cashel / Munster situated on the Rock of Cashel, who would become the direct male line ancestor of all the future Eoghanacht Chaisil Kings of Cashel / Munster. His other brother / or brothers, 88.Maine Munchain / 88.Daire Cerbba would be the direct male line ancestor of the Eoghanacht Ui Fidgeinti Sept, the Ui Duach Argetrois Sept and the Ui Liathain Sept in Munster.
375 AD About this time some of the Fir Bolg / Belgic Septs who were by now under great pressure also in the Leinster Province and the Munster Province also began migrating across the Irish Sea to the south of Wales and Cornwall.
St. Patrick a Romano - Brython Celt was also born this year in West Briton who would later have a great impact on the spread of Christianity in Ireland.
376 AD 89.Mongfind
now seeing it was the intention of her brother,
*89.Criffan / Crimthann
the
Heberian
Eoghanacht 125th King of Tara / Ireland,
to see that that *90.Niall
should be the next heir - apparent
/ Tanaiste
to the
Kingship of Tara / Ireland,
not her son, 90.Brion, panicked and poisoned her
own brother, *89.Criffan hoping to install
90.Brion to
the throne of Tara / Ireland
instead. She also then poisoned
herself by drinking from the same cup to try and prove that she didn't do it,
but her son 90.Brion was passed over anyway, as
her action was a finghal (kin slaying) frowned upon under the
Brehon Law.
*89.Criffan
/ Crimthann
died on the way back to the
376 - 405 AD

became
the Heremonian

Moen the King of the Saxons in
Albion / Briton. *90.Niall
was to become the direct male line ancestor of the
Dal
Cuinn southern and northern Ui Niaill
Septs in Ireland and the
Highlands of Scotland. His first expedition
was into Alba / Scotland to subdue the
Scythian Gaelic
Picts there, as the Heremonian
Ui Cobhthaigh Ui Conaire Scottii from
Co. Antrim who had crossed over into the
Scottish Highlands from there had been growing in
numbers, which naturally upset the Picts who turned on them.
*90.Niall took a large fleet across to
Alba where he was joined by the
Gaelic Milesian
Heremonian
Ui Conaire
Irish who were under attack there, and they successfully defeated and submitted the
Gaelic Picts
and gained hostages from them for their good behaviour in the future.
Argyle (The Land of the Gael) and
Cantire /
Kintyre were to be settled on them, which would not really come under the overall control of the
Heremonians until the very early 6th Century AD
when they were to return to Alba
as the
Heremonian Dal Cuinn northern
Ui Niaill.
*90.Niall's next expedition was to be into Albion / Briton during the Roman withdrawal under
Maximus. He was to be known
later on as *90.Niall of the Nine Hostages
as he would take aristocratic warrior Royal hostages from nine territories or Countries, which he was to submit
and make pay him tribute / borumha. This included the
4 Provinces in Ireland, Albion

(Ui Fiachrach) whose territory of Aidhne was then from Carn
Fearadhaigh near
Limerick in the mid - north - west of the Munster Province
to
Magh Mucronmhe
near Athenry in Co. Galway
in Southern Connacht.
Because of the proximity of their territories,
90.Brion
and 90.Fiachra soon fell out and came into
conflict and there was a battle between them and
90.Fiachra was defeated and sent onto *90.Niall
as a hostage.
91.Earc
Cuil
Buidhe
aka
91.Macc
Ercae,
one of the sons of 90.Fiacha was very
naturally skilled and because of their previous conflict he was to besiege his uncle,
90.Brion, with his allies from the
90.Fiachra
Foltsnach
- of the Flowing Hair
was now sent to collect the obnoxious
tribute / borumha on
behalf of his half - brother, *90.Niall
of the Nine Hostages the
126th
King of
Tara /
Ireland from the
Munster Province, but the men of
Munster
were still upset over the slaying of
89.Criffan
/ Crimthann and they
decided instead to challenge the men of
Connacht Province in battle at
Caenraige.
During the conflict and although Maidhi
Meascorach
was to mortally wound
