Mugain
Sa Rúraíocht i Miotaseolaíocht na nGael, banríon na nUladh ba ea Mughain Aiteannchaithreach iníon Eochach Fheidhligh, (Sean-Ghaeilge Mugain Etanchaitrech ingen Echach Feidlig), chomh maith le Mumain. Dúradh gur bhean chéile í de striapaí rí na nUladh, Conchúr mac Neasa,[1] a raibh mac acu darbh ainm Glaisne.[2] Deirfiúr athartha Mhéabha ba ea í. Ciallaíonn a buafhocal, 'Aitinchairchech', go litriúil "gruaig choirp nó b'fhéidir caithir atá cosúil le aiteann."[3][4][5]

Macgníomhartha Chú Chulainn
cuir in eagarNuair a tháinig Cú Chulainn ar ais go hEamhain Mhacha tar éis a chéad ruathar, bhí an oiread sin riastradh air go raibh imní ar na hUlaidh go scriosfadh sé iad. Thug Mughain amach a bruinnealla, agus nocht siad a gcíocha os a chomhair. Ní bhreathnódh Cú Chulainn orthu, agus bhí na hUlaidh in ann é a streachailt i mbairille uisce fuair isteach, a phléasc de bharr theastas a choirp.[6] Chuir siad é i ndara bairille isteach, agus d'fhiuch an t-uisce. Sa deireadh, i dtríú bairille, níor tharla ach gur tháinig an t-uisce suas go teocht dheas.

cuir in eagarFuair Laoghaire Buadach bás de bharr a caidrimh le hÁed, file Chonchúir.[7]
Mharaigh na hUlaidh í de dheasca an cion a bhí acu uirthi, cé nach ndearna siad feimeamharú ach go hannamh.[8]
