Giric of Scotland at AllExperts (630 words) |
 | Duncan argued that the association of Giric and Eochaid in the kingship is spurious, that Giric alone was king of the Picts, which he claimed as the son of daughter of Cináed mac AilpÃn, and that the report that he was Eochaid's guardian (alumpnus) is a misreading of uncle (auunculus). |
| Smyth proposed that Giric was a nephew of Cináed mac AilpÃn, the son of his brother Domnall, which appears to rest on what is probably a scribal error. |
| Finally, Hudson has suggested that Giric, rather than being a member of Cenél nGabráin dynasty of Cináed mac AilpÃn and his kin, was a member of the northern Cenél Loairn descended dynasty of Moray, and accepts the existence of Giric's supposed brother CausantÃn. |
