Life

On 13 April (Old Style) the Martyrology of Donegal records Saint Riachuill. He is called Mac Buachalla; Tallaght writes the name Riagail. The same name also appears in the Martyrology of Tallaght and Gorman's martyrology. Veneration is that of the medieval Irish calendars, without synodal canonization, and the sources are silent on the rest.

Commemorated the same day April 13
