    THE HISTORY OF THE SCOTS, THE PICTS AND THE BRITONS

    Fantastic source of information. In one place he presents a strong casethat the Pictish Kings and the Scots Kings may have been the same people:
    "Compare the early reigns recognised by historians such as W.A. Cummins;

    Pictish King List Dalriadic Monarchs
    Drust (d 478) Fergus (501? 3 year reign)
    Talore (478-482) Angus Mor ?
    Nechtan (482-506) Domangart Ness' son (d 506)
    Drest Gurthinmoch (506-36) Comgall (506-537)
    Drust son of Gyrom (536-558) Gabran (d 559)
    Brude Mac Maelcon (begun reign 558) Conall (begun reign 559)

    The Pictish King list is almost exactly the same as the Dalriadic KingList, the dates are tallying too well for just a coincedence. By themiddle of the sixth century, none of the dates of Pictish and Scoticreigns are significantly different. Even the names when pronouncedcorrectly with the proper accent sound far too similar for it to be anaccident (Drust/Drest is probably another version of Brude i.e. fatherof). The fact that there are the same number of Kings, all reigning andbeing suceeded at the same time, indicates that these are the samekings." (22.1)

    In Chapter 11 the line of Eric:
    "Two sons of Eochaid Muin-remor, namely Erc and Olchu. And Erc had twelvesons, six of them took possession of Scotland :- two Loarns, Loarn Becand Loarn Mor; and two sons of {Nes}, Mac Misi Bec and Mac Misi Mor; twosons Fergus Bec and Fergus Mor. Six others were in Ireland, namelyMac-Deichill; Angus, whose descendants are in Scotland; Enda, Bressal,Fiachra, Dubtach, Others say that Erc had another son whose name wasMuiredach.

    Olchu, Eochaid Muin-remar's son had eleven sons, who inhabited Muirbolgwith the [men of] Dalriata; namely Muiredach Bolc, Aed, Guaire, Daire,Angus, Tuathal, Anblomaid, Eochaid, Setna, Brisomu, Cormac.
    Fergus Erc's son was another name of Mac Misi Mor. He had one sonDomangart, Domangart had two sons Gabran and Comgall, both sons ofFedlim, daughter of Briun, son of Eochaid Muigmedon. Comgall had one sonConall. Conall had seven sons :-
    Loingsech, Nechtan, Artan, Tuathan, Tutio, Coirpre, Gabran had five sons:-
    Aed Find [Aidan], Eogan, Cuiltech, Donald, Domangart. Aed Find [Aidan]had seven sons :-
    two Eochaids, Eochaid Buide and Eochaid Find; Tuathal, Bran, Baithine,Conaing, Gartnait Eochaid Buide, Aidan's son had eight son's:-
    Donald Brecc and Donald Dond, and Conall Crandoma, Conall Bregg, ConnadCerr, Failbe, Domangart, Cu-Cen-Mathir Eochaid Find had eight sons :-
    Baetann, Pertan, Pletan, Cormac, Cronan, Feradach, Fedlimid, Caplen
    These were the sons of Conaing, Aidan's son:-
    Rigallan, Ferchar, Artan, Arthur, Duncan, Domangart, Nechtan, Nem,Crumene
    Four sons of Gartnait, namely ....
    Two sons of Morgan, son of Eochaid Find, son of Aidan, son of Gabran[grandson of Fergus Mor]. Now [Fergus Mor's] Brother was Fergus Bec, sonof Erc Geodnaid. He had one son Setna, from whom descend the tribe ofSetna, or Setne, son of Fergus Bec, son of EochaidMuin-remor.
    Angus Mor and Loarn and Macc-Misi Mor were three sons of Erc on that Side
    Angus Mor Erc's son, had two sons Natsluaig and Fergna. Fergna had sevensons :-
    Tuathal, Aed Letho, Riagan, Fiachu, Guaire, Cantaan, Eocho."
    The senchus continues with more information on 8th century divisions andmanpower within the territories of the descendants of the son's of Erc -I have omitted the remainder of the senchus as the main purpose of thischapter is to define the genealogy of the early Scots kings."
