In Irish mythology, Tethra of the Fomorians ruled Mag Mell after dying in the Second Battle of Mag Tuiredh. After the battle, his sword, Orna, was taken by Ogma and it then recounted everything it had done.

Etymology

Tethra may be derived from the Proto-Indo-European ''*tet(e)ro-'' meaning 'quacking sound'. Tethra means both sea and scald-crow Badb or Roynston's crow in Old Irish.
