Feidlimid mac Coirpri Chruimm

Feidlimid mac Coirpri Chruimm was a supposed king of Munster from the Glendamnach branch of the Eoganachta.[1] Not mentioned as king in the Annals or the Book of Leinster, he is mentioned in the Laud Synchronisms as successor to his father Coirpre Cromm mac Crimthainn (died 577). However, the other references mention Feidlimid mac Tigernaig as king. According to the historians T. M. Charles-Edwards and F. J. Byrne, these lists seem to favour the Glendamnach line and may be artificial.
