Cináed Ciarrge mac Cathussaig


Cináed Ciarrge mac Cathussaig was a Dál nAraidi king of Ulaid, an over-kingdom in medieval Ireland. He was the son of Cathussach mac Ailello, a previous king and possible over-king of Ulaid. He belonged to the Eilne branch of the family, and ruled from 774 to 776.
The Dál nAraidi became involved in civil war during his reign and in 776 they fought a battle amongst themselves at the battle of Sliabh Mis. That same year they engaged in another battle, the battle of Drong, where the opposing sides sought the assistance of their neighbours. Cináed and his ally, Dúngal king of the Uí Tuirtri, were slain by Tommaltach mac Indrechtaig and his ally Eochaid mac Fiachnai of the Dál Fiatach.
