Topic: Diarmait MacMurrough

	[No title]
		Diarmait, son of Fergus Cerbaill (544-565), of the southern Hy Neill, undoubtedly professed Christianity though he still clung to many pagan practices, such as polygamy and the use of druidical incantations in battle.
		In this battle Diarmait is stated to have employed druids to form an airbe druad (fence of protection?) round his host.
		Diarmait MacMurchada (Dermod MacMurrough), great-grandson of Diarmait Mael-na-mB6, as king of Leinster was by descent and position much mixed up with foreigners, and generally in a state of latent if not open hostility to the high-kings of the Hy Neill and Dalcais dynasties.

	Diarmait Mac Murchada - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Diarmait Mac Murchada, anglicized as Dermot MacMurrough (died 1 January 1171) is considered the most notorious traitor in Irish history.
		Diarmait's army lost the battle and the Norman and Welsh mercenaries whom he had hired soon aided an invasion by England's Henry II in 1169.
		Although in modern Irish history Diarmait Mac Murchada is often seen as a traitor, his intention was not to aid an English invasion of Ireland, but rather to use Henry's assistance to become the High King of Ireland himself.
