Mac Cuill, Mac Guill [Ir., son of
hazel]. A king/warrior of the
Tuatha Dé Danann, best remembered as the first of the three brothers who kill the hero
Lug Lámfhota, along with
Mac Cécht (1) and
Mac Gréine, in revenge for Lug's having killed their father,
Cermait. Often described as the husband of
Banba, an incarnation of
Ireland. In Christian Irish tradition Mac Cuill is portrayed as a champion of paganism against St
Patrick. Muirchú's Life of Patrick (7th cent.) describes the saint, with superior magical power, converting Mac Cuill to Christianity and setting him adrift, as a penance, in a rudderless, oarless coracle which bears him to the Isle of
Man, where he becomes a missionary. From the episode evolved the persona of St
Maughold of Manx tradition.
