- Eochaidh (King of Tyrone) was the son Angus Fedelmid and father of Erc and Olchu.[1][2] Eochaidh was called "the Horseman of the Heavens."
Under Eochaid's rule, after his 6 generations of Scots in what is now western Scotland, the Dalriada colony of Scots were pushed back to Ireland by the Picts around 440. They would return in two generations by way of his grandchildren, the sons of Erc.[3]
