Tutagual of Alt Clut
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
(Redirected from Tutagual of Strathclyde)
Tutagual of Alt Clut was the ruler of Alt Clut (modern Dumbarton Rock), and contemporary with St. Ninian sometime in the mid sixth century. He is mentioned in Adomnán's Vita Columbae, where he is called Tothail. He is called Tuduael and Thuuahel in the eighth century Miracula Nyniae Episcopi, and Ailred of Rievaulx, writing the mid-1100s (but using earlier work on Ninian) gives the forms Tudwaldus and Tuduvallus. According to the Harleian genealogies, he was the son of Clinoch, the probable previous king of Alt Clut. The genealogies inform us that he was the father of his probably successor, Riderch Hael, a claim confirmed by Adomnán.
