The end of the century brings yet another Pictish invasion, this time met by the great Roman general Stilicho himself, who also manages to send the great Irish hero Niall of the Nine Hostages, scampering back to Ireland.
He did this to my favourite ancestor, Niall Noigiallach?
I shall have to look into this further

I'm particularly interested in the discrepancy between mainstream accounts of the Pictish being amongst the first people in Scotland (they were present in Ireland too) and the ancient Gaelic tales which has them coming from Iberia sometime after the Milesian conquest of Ireland (although not too long after, within a generation I believe)
