A legend related to the Conaille Muirtheimne[2] states that Conall Constamail mac Finnchada fathered three sons, Rúntar, Glass and Ímda (eponyms of the Dál Rúntar, Glasraige and Dál nÍmda) upon his own daughter Creidne; out of shame he banished her and her sons; she fought against her parents and only after seven years of exile did she reach a settlement.
A sail training yacht owned by the Irish Naval Service, used as a replacement for the Asgard II, is named Creidne for the mythical warrior.[3][4]
