Mathghamhain mac Cian

Mathghamhain mac Cian was a nobleman of the Eóganacht Raithlind and a grandson of Brian Boru, one of the High Kings of Ireland. He was the son of Cian mac Máelmuaid and his wife Sadhbh, daughter of Brian Boru. He died at the Battle of Clontarf in 1014 fighting for the High King.

Mathghamhain's descendants eventually became sovereigns over territory in west Cork, notably around the Iveragh Peninsula and the town of Bandon. Today, his descendants use the surname O'Mahony, O'Mahoney, Mahoney, Mahony, Maughon or Mahaney, Irish Ó Mathghamhna or modernised Ó Mathúna.
