According to the Pictish articles, the following sentence 'Dar Gart mac Finguine of the Cenél Comgaill married the Pictish princess Der Ilei, and the Pictish kings Bridei and Nechtan mac Der Ilei were the result of this marriage' should be linked to Bridei IV of the Picts, not Bridei III of the Picts. I have altered the link in this article accordingly -- but if I have misunderstood or unwittingly interfered in a controversy, please revert! Andrew Dalby11:36, 30 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
No, just finger trouble. The numbering of Pictish kings is WP:OR anyway. Come to that, the numbering of kings of Dál Riata is OR: nobody uses it, and long-dead historians who did, such as George Buchanan, did not use the same regnal numbers. Angus McLellan(Talk)12:22, 30 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Gilbert Markus writes in the re-written first volume of 'The New History of Scotland' series, replacing Barrow's edition, that: "It seems that the Cenel Comgaill power base which supported Dargart and his son lay not only in Dal Riata, but also in southern Pictland, notably Strathearn and a little to the east of that." p.107, "Conceiving a Nation".
There is a conflict in understand the origin of Connad Cerr d.629. He is either the son of Eochu Buide mac Aedain mac Gabrain or the son of Conall mac Comgaill (brother of Gabran). The descendants of Connad Cerr, Clann Connaid Cerr, are called the men of Fife. Hence is possible for Cenel Comgaill to stretch from Cowal via Strathearn to Fife.
