King of Scottish Dalriada. Gabran's forces were defeated by the Picts in 558. He died in the same year, and was succeeded by Comgall's son Conall.

Gabran gave his name to the Cenel nGabrain, one of the four divisions of the Dal Riata. Most of the kings of Dal Riata, and later Scotland, were drawn from the Cenel nGabrain. Gabran's wife, Luan, was a daughter of Brychan II, King of Brycheiniog, shown elsewhere in this genealogy.

Acceded about 574. Consecrated by his cousin St. Columba. In 575 Aedan attended the Convention of Druim Cett in Ireland, which apparently convened to decide the political relationship between Dal Riata and the kings of the Northern Ui Neill in Ireland, whose power was growing. In 581 he led an expedition to the Orkney islands, and he won a victory at the Isle of Man in the following year. In 590, he won a battle against the Maetae, his British neighbours, but lost two of his sons in the battle. In 596, in the first battle between Scots and English, two more of his sons were slain. In 600, he lead an army against the English of Northumbria, but was decisively defeated at Degsastan. He was victorious in a battle against the Picts sometime between 596 and 606.

Aedan's wife, Domnach was a daughter of Maelgwyn (Malgo) Hir "the Tall", Ruler of Gwynedd (shown elsewhere in this genealogy. He actually had at least three wifes, seven sons and several daughters, but names of all are not known.

Eochaid Buide "Yellow-Haired" succeeded to the kingship upon his father's death in 606. All his older brothers had been killed. Eochaid's reign appears to have been quiet until the end, but in 627, the forces of Dal Riata, led by Eochaid's successor, Connad Cerr, were victorious in a battle in Ireland.
