Hmm, I have a problem, not with the dates, as they will be varied from source to source, but I have a problem with names, the source i got this from gives slightly different names to one i am looking at on the net, I think it's due to translation, but it shows that all the Drest's were called Drust, which affect the numbering; here is the source: [1].
I think I will use the above website, as it's what i am using for the kings of Dalriada. I also believe the website is quite accurate. -fonzy
Drest/Drust and Bridei/Bruide are just spelling differences in this case, not word differences. You should also be aware that some scholars think that the words "Brude" and "Drust" may actually be titles rather than names but no one is very sure about it. -- Derek Ross
Here is the list of Pictish kings from Óengus I mac Fergusa (i.e. Onuist, son of Urgust), with the names and year lengths as they appear in the text. I was wondering where good old Bred was?
(the list has been cut off here, were Ciniod filius Elpin would have appeared).
This is a Pictish kinglist, going from Bridei, the first historical king from other sources. It was inserted into the Lebor Bretnach in the 2nd half of the 11th century, when the Lebor Bretnach was composed (probably at Abernethy; which held a king-list):
I notice that Bred (as Brod) is mentioned again, reigning with Urad. -

Here's something bodged up from material on the CELT site (Annals of Ulster, Tigernach, Innsfallen & the Four Masters, Chronicon Scotorum) which may be of assistance to anyone editing articles on Pictish kings. It is surely not exhaustive. There are translations on CELT, which would presumably be under copyright, of all but the Annals of Tigernach. The EH and CB entries are from the etext (pdf) of Sellar's translation at CCEL.
Feel free to revise this if you see any errors or omissions, thanks ! Angus McLellan 14:18, 24 January 2006 (UTC)
Can I suggest that Kineth of the Picts be renamed Ciniod II of the Picts or Cináed II of the Picts; Kineth is Norman corruption (pre-Norman Insular languages do not use k, except in a few exceptional Latin words, like Kalends). - Calgacus 15:59, 26 January 2006 (UTC)
I'm glad there's a table now, and the information in it looks useful and interesting, But the neon colourscheme really is very extreme. At the very least we should tone it down to more pastel shades, like Tallest structures in Paris. Moreover, most of the featured lists (of those that use tables) don't use colour simply to aid readability by alternating - while Tallest structures in Paris does, most (e.g. List of notable brain tumor patients, List of Northwest Territories general elections, List of signatories of the United States Constitution, List of United States Senate committees, and List of Portuguese monarchs) don't. I think we shouldn't use colour where it isn't meaningful. If we could ascribe some meaning to it (such as different colours for different noble houses) we should still use a more muted scheme, like Timeline of discovery of Solar System planets and their natural satellites. -- Finlay McWalter | Talk 20:32, 20 May 2006 (UTC)

King Alpin [Elphin] of Dalriada was killed in the battle for the city; while Muredach, the rival-king, was chased out of the country and fled to Ireland for refuge. He was pursued by the Pictish King Onuist who caught up with him in Ulster and there slew him, and defeated the rebel Dalriadan forces. His son, Eogan [II], submitted to the Pictish King Onuist who made him a vassal-king under his overlordship, however, in 739 King Onuist deposed Eogan II, and annexed Dalriada to the Pictish kingdom. In 741 King Onuist quelled a rebellion in Dalriada led by the anti-king Indrechtach, whom he slew in battle. The war against Strathclyde from 744-756 went badly for the Picts, which encouraged another uprising in Dalriada. The defeat of the Pictish Army against Strathclyde in 750 caused a rebellion in Albany during which King Onuist lost control of his kingdom for two years (750-752); during which the Scots expelled the Pictish Army from their kingdom and regained their independence.
