Eochaid mac Áeda Find
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Eochaid mac Áeda Find is a spurious King of Dál Riata found in some High Medieval king-lists and in older history books.
Supposedly a son of Áed Find (died 778) and successor to Áed's brother Fergus mac Echdach, Eochaid is now thought to represent a misplacing of the reign of Eochaid mac Echdach. The reigns of Selbach mac Ferchair, Dúngal mac Selbaig and, perhaps, Alpín mac Echdach, are similarly misplaced in the sources which contain this Eochaid.
