Eochaid Buide was king of D l Riata from around 608 until 629. Buide refers to the colour yellow, as in the colour of his hair. He was a younger son of ed n mac Gabr in and became his father s chosen heir upon the death of his elder brothers. Adomn n of Iona Adomn n s Life of Saint Columba has Columba foresee that Eochaid, then a child, will succeed his father in preference to his adult brothers Art r, Eochaid Find and Domangart. In the last two years of his reign, 627&ndash 629, Eochaid was apparently co ruler with Connad Cerr , who predeceased him. Eochaid was followed by his son Domnall Brecc . Eochaid s other sons named by the Senchus fer n Alban are Conall Crandomna , Failbe who died at the Battle of Fid Eoin , C cen m thair whose death is reported in the Annals of Ulster for 604 , Conall Bec, Connad or Conall Cerr who may be the same person as Connad Cerr who died at Fid Eoin , Failbe, Domangart and Domnall Donn not the same person as Domnall Donn unless his obituary is misplaced by 45 years like that of Ferchar mac Connaid According to the Fled D in na nG d , Eochaid Buide was the grandfather of Congal C ech . The story has anachronistic features as it has Eochaid alive at the time of the battle of Mag Rath securely dated to within a year of 637 , but it is chronologically feasible that Congal C ech could have been the son of Eochaid s daughter if the identification of C cen m thair and the dating of his death is correct.

Eochaid mac Eochaid was king of D l Riata modern western Scotland from 726 until 733. He was a son of Eochaid mac Domangairt . Eochaid came to power as king of D l Riata in 726, presumably deposing D ngal mac Selbaig . Selbach mac Ferchair Selbach may have tried to restore his son to power, and fought against Eochaid s supporters at Irros Foichnae in 727, but without apparent success. The annals vary as to whether the despatch of a fleet from D l Riata to Ireland to aid Flaithbertach mac Loingsig in his war with ed All n should be placed in the reign of Eochaid, or that of his successor. At his death in 733, Eochaid is named king rather than lord of D l Riata, which may suggest that after the defeat of D ngal and Selbach his reign was unchallenged. His son, ed Find , was later king of D l Riata. As D l Riata certainly maintained a separate existence until 736, Eochaid must have had a successor, or successors. It appears that he was succeeded by Muiredach mac Ainbcellaig , who had replaced D ngal mac Selbaig as king of the Cen l Loairn .
