Ruadrí, Earl of Mar

Ruadrí, Earl of Mar

Ruadrí of Mar is the first known Mormaer of Mar from the 12th century, although that the mormaerdom was much older. For instance, there was a Mormaer of Mar at the Battle of Clontarf, 1014.

He is mentioned as "Ruadrí mormar Marr" in the Gaelic notes on the Book of Deer. This means his floruit dates a little after 1130.
