Abstract
Following recent work that has begun to reassess previously held views about the recensions of Dinds.enchas Érenn, this article examines the authorship and transmission history of the dinds.enchas of Loch Garman, which exists in two prose versions and one verse composition. We first argue that the verse dind‑ s.hencas of Loch Garman is the product of a single author, Eochaid Éolach úa Céirín, refuting Tomás Ó Concheanainn’s assertion that Eochaid composed only the second half of the poem. We then examine the individual versions of the dinds.enchas of Loch Garman to posit a new relative chronology, with potential ramifications for an understanding of the recensions of the Dinds.enchas.
