Duthracht of Liathdruim

Saint Duthracht of Liathdruim is an Irish saint of the undivided Church, remembered in the old martyrologies of Ireland.

The compiler of the Donegal text suggests that he may be Durthacht, son of Trichim, of Caon-⁠druim, a brother of Dichu of Sabhall and of the race of Fiatach Finn, and that he is venerated at or near Tara, since Liath-⁠druim is one of the names of Tara.

The Martyrology of Donegal, compiled in 1630 from older sources, commemorates him on 16 May. The Martyrology of Tallaght, from the early ninth century, lists a similar name on the same day. The date is that of the old Irish calendar, that is, in the old style.

No further details of his life survive in the sources consulted.
