Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Use Irish English The Conmhaícne Mheáin Maigh or Conmaicne Mhein or Conmaicne Máenmaige or Conmaicne Críche Meic Erca (the Conmaicne of the central plain) were an early people of Ireland, their tuath comprising the barony of Loughrea, in County Galway.

Origin

The Conmhaícne or Conmaicne were a people of early Ireland, perhaps related to the Laigin, who dispersed to various parts of Ireland. They settled in Connacht and Longford, giving their name to several Conmaicne territories. Шаблон:SfnШаблон:Sfn O'Donovan stated "Meán/Mheáin" or "meádhan" refer to "middle or center". Maigh is Irish for "plain". The tuath is sometimes called "Conmhaícne Máenmaige", "Máenmag", "Machaire Maenmuighe", and "Tricha Máenmaige" in the Irish Annals.
