  The Heroic Age: Oswald and the Irish   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
In 627, Connad Cerr son or nephew of Eochaid was victorious against Fiachna son of Demmain of Dál Fiatach (of the Ulaid) in the battle of Ard Corann.
According to the Annals of Clonmacnoise, the battle was fought to revenge the death of Fiachna son of Beatain, king of Dál nAraide[5], at the battle of Lethet Midind (Bannerman 1974:97-98).
The battle of Mag Rath was fought by a coalition led by Conal, king of the Dál nAraide, accompanied by Cenél nEógain of the Northern Ui Neill and Dalriada against Domnall son of Aed of Cenél Conaill, a member of a rival branch of the Northern Ui Neill and high-king of Ireland (Bannerman 1974:101).

Connad Cerr (Connad the Left-handed) was a king of Dál Riata in the early 7th century.
Connad was killed at Fid Eóin, fighting against the Dál nAraidi led by Máel Caích, brother of Congal Cáech.
While the Annals of Ulster have the battle in 629 and the Annals of Tigernach in 630, both place the death of Connad before the death of Eochaid Buide.

As recorded in the Annals of Ulster under the year 629, Dalriada was defeated in the battle and the king Connad Cerr, son of Eochaid Buide, was killed.
It would be tempting to see the web of alliances created—between Northumbria and the Scots of Dalriada and the Britons of Rheged—as part of a deliberate strategy on the part of the exiles to consolidate their position in the north, both before and after their return (Cessford 1996, 23).

The combined form of Dalriada generally refers to the settlement made by the Scots in Argyll, in present-day Scotland.

This killing may have opened Congal's way to becoming king of the Ulaid, but it also brought Domnall mac Áedo of the Cenél Conaill, Congal's nemesis, to the headship of the Northern Uí Néill.
In 629, Congal appears to have defeated the Dál Riata at Fid Eóin, killing Connad Cerr, although the victor is named as Maél Caích, perhaps an otherwise unknown brother of Congal.
As well as their king, the Dál Riata suffered the loss of two grandsons of Áedán mac Gabráin and the Bernician exile Osric (perhaps a son of Æthelfrith) was also killed.
