Cétadach

Cétadach, 31st Abbot of Clonmacnoise, died 848.

Cétadach succeeded Rónán, who resigned in 823 but only died in 844. Events which occurred during his abbacy included:

  • 845:There was an encampment of the foreigners under Tuirgéis on Loch , and they plundered Connacht and Mide and burned Cluain moccu Nóis with its oratories, and Cluain Ferta Brénainn, and Tír da glas and Lothea and many monasteries.
  • 846:The church-lands of Ciarán were plundered by Feidlimid son of Crimthann. Ciarán however followed him to Mumu and gave him a thrust of his crozier for it, so that he was afflicted with an internal wound.
  • 847:Eógan son of Edacáin son of Torbarg, an anchorite, rested in Cluain moccu Nóis.

The Annals of the Four Masters state of him:

Cetadach, Abbot of Cluain Mic Nois, died. He was of the tribe of Ui Cormaic Maenmhaighe (Máenmaige). It was in lamentation of him this quatrain was composed:All have heard it/both uncommon and common/That an abbot at Cluain like Cedadach/will never again be seen.
