"In 615 Máel Coba was defeated and slain by Suibne Menn at the Battle of Sliab Truim.[3] According to Lacy (82, 2006) the location of this battle is not the usually identified Bessy Bell mountain in Co. Tyrone, but rather near Sliabh Tuath (Slievetooey) in southwest Donegal, a prominent mountain in Cenél mBógaine territory. He notes “it is difficult to see why these two powerful (allegedly) Donegal dynasts would have been fighting each other at such a location(Bessy Bell) in 613.[4] Later texts state that Máel Coba survived the battle, became a poet, a bishop of Clogher, then a hermit at Druminillar[5] townland, Beleek parish, County Fermanagh and then died of the plague.[6][7][8][9][10]"
