 Guardian | Who was Niall of the Nine Hostages?
Sources suggest that he was born in around AD342, the son of the Irish High King Eochaid Mugmedon and his second wife, Cairenn.
Some wicked-stepmothering from Eochaid's first wife, Mongfind, led to Niall having to overcome his half-brothers - who bore the evocative names of Fergus, Ailill, Fiachrae and, er, Brian - in the battle to be their father's successor.
The epithet "Nine Hostages" (or Noigíallach in Gaelic) derives from Niall's habit of borrowing people from other kingdoms and refusing to give them back.
