Domnall mac Causantín (Modern Gaelic: Dòmhnall mac Chòiseim, IPA:[ˈt̪oːvnəɫ̪ˈmaʰkˈxoːʃɪm]),[1] anglicised as Donald II (died 900), was King of the Picts or King of Alba in the late 9th century. He was the son of Constantine I (Causantín mac Cináeda). Donald is given the epithet Dásachtach, "the Madman", by The Prophecy of Berchán.[2]
- ^ Domnall mac Causantín is the Mediaeval Gaelic form.
- ^ ESSH, p. 358; Kelly, Early Irish Law, pp. 92–93, 308: "The dásachtach is the person with manic symptoms who is liable to behave in a violent and destructive manner." The dásachtach is not responsible for his actions. The same word is used for enraged cattle.
