Conall Gulban [Ir., beak, sting]. Son of
Niall Noígiallach [of the Nine Hostages] and a founder of the kingdom of
Tír Chonaill (Co.
Donegal). Conall and his two brothers,
Eógan and
Énna (3), were, according to T. F. O'Rahilly, identical with the three
Collas who razed the
Ulster capital of
Emain Macha; see Early Irish History and Mythology (Dublin, 1946), 230. On his own Conall headed the Clann Conaill. The establishment of two kingdoms in north-west Ulster, Tír Chonaill by Conall and Tír Eógain [Tyrone] by his brother Eógan, were signal events in early Irish history. According to oral tradition, Conall Gulban gave his name to
Ben Bulben [corrupted from
Beinn Ghulbain], Co. Sligo, when he was killed pursuing a giant who had abducted
Eithne Uchtsholas, daughter of the king of Leinster. His descendant was
Colum Cille. Sometimes reputed to be living at the falls of
Assaroe.
