Dubhthach
Sa Rúraíocht i miotaseolaíocht na nGael, ba ghaiscíoch na nUladh é Dubhthach (Sean-Ghaeilge Dubthach Dóeltenga (ciaróg-theanga)).
Ba chomhghuaillí searbhasach Fheargasa Mhic Róich é nár mhol duine ar bith ach go hannamh.
Chuaigh sé i dteannta le Fearghas chun Deirdre agus Naoise a thabhairt ar ais go hÉirinn faoi réir Chonchúir. Lean sé Feargha ar deoraíocht go Connacht tar éis dúnmharú Naoise.
Ba chiontach é le bás mhac Chonchúir, i measc eile.[1]
Throid sé ar thaobh Fhearghasa sa Táin Bó Cuailnge, cé gur chuir Fearghas an ruaig air as an gcampa, de bharr a rúin chun Cú Chulainn a mharú.[2]
