About This Item

The Red Hand

The myth of the Red Hand recounts how O'Neill and a man named Dermott both wished to be king of Ulster. The High King of Ireland suggested a boat race across the water and that "whosoever's hand is the first to touch the shore of Ulster, so shall he be made the king". As the two came in sight of the ending point, it seemed that Dermott would win, so O'Neill cut his hand off and threw it. It reached the goal ahead of Dermott's boat, winning for O'Neill the crown of Ulster.
