Máel Snechtai of Moray (original) (raw)
Máel Snechtai mac Lulaich (died 1085) was the ruler of Moray, and the son of Lulach, King of Scotland. He is called on his death notice in the Annals of Ulster, "Máel Snechtai m. Lulaigh ri Muireb" (="Máel Snechtai, Lulach's son, King of Moray"), which is a significant terminological development, since previously the titles for the ruler of Moray had either been "King of Scotland" or "Mormaer." The title is repeated for his successor, Óengus (if indeed the latter were his successor). His death date is based on the year given by the Annals of Ulster, s.a. 1085.

| dbo:abstract | Maelsnectan de Moray ou Mael Snechta mac Lulaich est Mormaer de Moray de 1058 à 1078. Il est le seul fils du roi Lulach Ier d'Écosse à la mort duquel il devient mormaer de Moray. La Chronique Anglo-saxonne note pour l'année 1078 que « Máel Coluim s'empare de la mère de Máel Snechtai, de tous ses trésors, de ses châteaux et que lui-même ne réussit à s'échapper qu'avec peine » ce qui implique qu'il aurait été vaincu par Malcolm III d'Écosse. Les Annales d'Ulster, le désignent comme « ri Muireb » c'est-à-dire « roi de Moray » et précisent qu'il meurt en 1085 « dans le bonheur », sans doute après s'être retiré dans un monastère après sa défaite de 1078. Il aurait eu comme successeur Aedh ou Heth, sans doute l'époux de sa sœur et qui fut le père de Angus mac Aedh dit lors de sa mort le « fils de la fille de Lulach ». (fr) Máel Snechtai mac Lulaich (died 1085) was the ruler of Moray, and the son of Lulach, King of Scotland. He is called on his death notice in the Annals of Ulster, "Máel Snechtai m. Lulaigh ri Muireb" (="Máel Snechtai, Lulach's son, King of Moray"), which is a significant terminological development, since previously the titles for the ruler of Moray had either been "King of Scotland" or "Mormaer." The title is repeated for his successor, Óengus (if indeed the latter were his successor). Perhaps then the events of Máel Snechtai's death caused some kind of identity disassociation between the Men of Moray and the Men of Scotland. The Anglo-Saxon Chronicle, s.a. 1078, reports that "In this year Máel Coluim seized the mother of Máel Snechtai ...and all his treasures, and his cattle; and he himself escaped [only] with difficulty." The ... represents a lacuna in the text one line long; but it is clear that Máel Snechtai was defeated by King Máel Coluim III in some kind of conflict. Grant's suggestion that Máel Snechtai subsequently retired to a monastery is based only on textual innuendo, and is made unlikely by the fact that he was called "King of Moray" on his death. Máel Snechtai, as the son of King Lulach, undoubtedly perceived himself as the rightful king of Scotland, and the already noted conflict with Máel Coluim III strongly suggests that he pursued his claim. His death date is based on the year given by the Annals of Ulster, s.a. 1085. (en) |
