Domnall is almost certainly the king visited by the continental Gaelic saint Cathróe of Metz. The vita of the latter saint states that Cathróe was Domnall's relative. ^[1] The visit must have happened between 941 and 946 , meaning that Domnall may have been reigning as early as 941.^[2] This fact presents historiographical problems, because the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle states that in 945 king Eadmund of England "harried all Cumbria and leased it to Máel Coluim, king of Scots, on the condition that he be his helper both on land and sea". ^[3] The only possibilities are that, firstly, one source is wrong; secondly, that Strathclyde was a divided kingdom; thirdly, that king Máel Coluim I gave the kingdom to Domnall as soon as he received it, with Cathróe visiting the following year; or that Máel Coluim II simply became the overlord of Domnall.

He is styled Domnall m. Eogain, ri Bretan in the Annals of Ulster, which notes his death in 975 on pilgrimage.^[4] The Welsh source known as the Brut y Tywyssogion, which calls him Dunguallon, confirms that Domnall did indeed set off on pilgrimage to Rome.^[5] Domnall must have left on pilgrimage a good time before his death, because Florence of Worcester tells us that in 973 the king of the Cumbrians was Máel Coluim I of Strathclyde; moreover, other Scottish sources name the Strathclyde king who killed the Scottish king Cuilén and his brother in 971 as Amdarch,^[6] suggesting that Domnall may have resigned the kingship sometime before 971.^[7] The Annals of Ulster are a chronicle of medieval Ireland. ...
