Life

Conghaltach mac Etguini died in 802 (the article says 808) and is called prior at Clonfert, not abbot, unless he held both offices at once, as Cormac mac Ciaran and Ruthmael did. Nothing else is preserved about him. He is regarded as venerable in the Irish tradition, but the sources show no canonization, feast or miracles.
