@eDIL_Dictionary @ChronHib I don't suppose either of you have insight into the placename "Etarbaine", spelled variously as etarbane or nEtarb iniu. It's a place in Tipperary apparently assoc with the Kings of Cashel, but it's mentioned briefly in the version of TBC in YBL

If I understand eHogan correctly, Etarba and Etarbane are two different places. Under "etarba", Higan has: Clár a quo Uí Chláre, issed a charn fil i nEtarba iniu "Clare, from which Uí Chláre (comes), this is his cairn which is today (iniu = indíu) in Etarba"

I thought they may have been different, but there may either have been a confusion of two different places or an error. In TCD H.2.7, the passage reads "Is e a cairnd fuil i nEtarb iniu" also, but in Expulsion of the Deisi, the same man was killed at "Etarbaine".

although Expulsion also calls him Fedlimid Clar, rather than Fedlimid and Clar being separate individuals in the genealogical tract.

As H.2.7 has a mix of very early material with later material and is a 15th (?) c. MS, it's hard for me to assess if the genealogy or Expulsion came before the other and if there is an issue of transmission or something like that.
