Life
The entry for 14 September (old style) in the Martyrology of Donegal names Corbmac. The text calls Corbmac Mac Cuilennain king of Munster, bishop and martyr, and dates his fall to the Leinstermen to 919; historians usually give 908. A bracketed addition says he often sang his psalms while immersed in water. Among the calendars consulted, only the Martyrology of Donegal records the name. Little else is known, and no synodal canonization is recorded.
