Sen dollotar Ulaid

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
(Redirected from Sen dollotar Ulaid ...)
Irish poem

Ulaid during the 10th-11th century and its three main sub-kingdoms, along with some of its neighbouring kingdoms.

"Sen dollotar Ulaid ..." is an Irish poem of uncertain date, possibly early 10th-century. It consists of nine quatrains, and lacks context. It appears to concern a raid by the men of Ulaid (Ulster) to Viking Scotland.
