  • The Political and Ecclesiastical Extent of Scottish Dalriada Pamela O’Neill
    Journal of the ustralian arly edieval A E M Association Vol ume 1 2005 volume 1 - 2005 The political and ecclesiastical extent of Scottish Dalriada Pamela O’Neill Abstract The Irish settlement of Dalriada on the west coast and islands of Scotland was formed sometime around the fifth century. It continued to exist as a distinct entity until at least the ninth century. Many of the principal sites within Dalriada have long been recognised, such as the political centre at Dunadd or the ecclesiastical centre on Iona. However, there is less clarity about the fringes of the territory over the 500 or so years of its existence. This paper discusses the documentary and, more particularly, the material evidence for the extent of Scottish Dalriada. Particular attention is given to Dalriada’s relationship to waterways, islands and coastal areas. Indications are sought concerning the political boundaries of the territory. Against this background, the geographical extent of the ecclesiastical organisation of Scottish Dalriada is considered. Around the fifth century CE, Irish immigrants from the north- eastern corner of modern County Antrim established a settlement on the west coast and islands of what is now Scotland. The settlement is known as Dalriada, after the Irish people called Dál Riata from whom most of the immigrants were apparently drawn. It was not until approximately five centuries later that the Dalriada joined their neighbours in Pictland to form the kingdom of Scotland. Documentary evidence for Dalriada during that interval is sparse, frequently ambiguous and difficult to interpret. There is, however, a considerable body of stone sculpture from Dalriada, which provides an opportunity to understand otherwise obscure aspects of social, cultural and religious life in Dalriada.
