    1. [R-M222] Tales of our Ancestors
    2. Bernard Morgan
    3. One thing I appreciate about being M222+ is the tales of our Ancestors. Though I don't the genealogical root of my M222+ Morgans, I can can enjoy the earliest tales as directly relating my ancestors (assuming we of course are from Dal Cuinn roots). To that end I would like to share "The Banquet of Duin na nGedh” and the follow-on tale "The Battle of Magh Rath". The Battle of Magh Rath occured around 637, when the King of Tara Domnall mac Áedo leading the Dal Cuinn branches defeated the Ulaid.
