Ness (Irish Mythology)
Ness (, ), also called Nessa, is a princess of the Ulaid and the mother of Conchobar mac Nessa in the Ulster Cycle of Irish mythology. Her father is Eochaid Sálbuide, king of the Ulaid. According to one version of the legend, she asks the druid Cathbad what the current day is a good day for and he replies that it is a good day to conceive a king. There are no other men around, so Ness takes Cathbad to bed and Conchobar is conceived. In other versions, Whitley Stokes (ed. & trans.)"Tidings of Conchobar son of Ness"''Ériu'' 2, 1908; Kuno Meyer, "Anecdota from the Stowe MS No 992", '' Revue Celtique'' 6, 1883-1885, pp. 171–186 Ness was brought up by twelve foster-fathers and was originally called ''Assa'' ("easy, gentle"), because she was such a pleasure to foster. Cathbad, who is a leader of a band of ''fianna'' (landless warriors) as well as a druid in this version, attacks her foster-fathers' house, killing them all. Because the culprit cannot be identified, Eochaid is powe ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
