Abstract
The battle of Cenn Fúait in 917, a decisive victory of the Vikings over Leinster, resulted in the re-establishment of Viking control of Dublin after a gap of fifteen years. This paper seeks to resolve the disputed question of the location of the battle. Attention is drawn to the remarkable contemporary account of the military manoeuvres preceding the battle, one that is uniquely informative about Irish and Viking military strategy and tactics.
