Crimthann Nia NĂ¡ir, son of Lugaid Riab nDerg, was a legendary High King of Ireland of the 1st century AD. He went on a famous expedition and returned with a golden chariot, a golden fidchell board inlaid with a hundred gems, a gold-embroidered cloak, a sword inlaid with gold serpents, a silver-bossed shield, a spear and a sling which never missed their mark, and two greyhounds with a silver chain between them. Soon after returning he fell from his horse and died.
