Kingdom of the Rhinns

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Na Renna in the 11th century Kingdom of the Isles
An excerpt from the Annals of Inisfallen.[1]
The text refers to an event dated 1094, and reads in Irish Macc Congail, rí na Rend, do marbad, which translates into English as "Congal's son, king of Na Renna, was slain".

Na Renna, or the Kingdom of the Rhinns, was a Norse-Gaelic lordship which appears in 11th century records. The Rhinns (Scottish Gaelic: Na Rannaibh) was a province in Medieval Scotland, and comprised, along with Farines, the later Wigtownshire. The Martyrology of Óengus gives some idea of the kingdom's domain in the 11th century, as Dún Reichet (Dunragit) and Futerna (Whithorn) are said to lie in the kingdom, implying that it embraced the whole of later Wigtownshire.
