Medieval and early modern Irish literature portrays an almost unbroken line of High Kings, ruling from the Hill of Tara over a hierarchy of lesser kings, stretching back thousands of years.

Sétna Airt
Sétna Airt, son of Artrí, son of Éber, son of Ír, son of Míl Espáine, was, according to medieval Irish legend and historical tradition, a High King of Ireland. He came to power after the death of the previous incumbent, Rothechtaid mac Main, whom, according to one version of the story, he had killed in single combat at Cruachan, fighting to protect his son, Fíachu Fínscothach. He ruled for five years, until Fíachu, returning from exile, killed him at Cruachan. Geoffrey Keating adds that Fíachu returned to Cruachan in a "black fleet", and the ''Annals of the Four Masters'' says he was assisted in the killing of Sétna by the future High King Muinemón.''Annals of the Four Masters The ''Annals of the Kingdom of Ireland'' () or the ''Annals of the Four Masters'' () are chronicles of Middle Ages, medieval Irish history.
