Sétna Innarraid

Sétna Innarraid

Sétna Innarraid ("of wages, stipend, reward"), ["Dictionary of the Irish Language", Compact Edition, Royal Irish Academy, 1990, p. 408] son of Bres Rí, was, according to medieval Irish legend and historical tradition, a High King of Ireland. He is said to have been the first Irish king to pay his soldiers. He ruled for twenty years, before he was killed by Siomón Brecc, grandson of Nuadu Finn Fáil. The "Lebor Gabála Érenn" synchronises his reign with those of Darius the Great (522-485 BC) and Xerxes I (485–465 BC) of Persia. [R. A. Stewart Macalister (ed. & trans.), "Lebor Gabála Érenn: The Book of the Taking of Ireland Part V", Irish Texts Society, 1956, p. 251-253] The chronology of Geoffrey Keating's "Foras Feasa ar Éirinn" dates his reign to 705-685 BC, [Geoffrey Keating, "Foras Feasa ar Éirinn" [http://www.ucc.ie/celt/published/T100054/text036.html 1.26] ] that of the "Annals of the Four Masters" to 930-910 BC. ["Annals of the Four Masters" [http://www.ucc.ie/celt/published/T100005A/text012.html M4270-4290] ]
