Reading edition

729 Bellum Monitcarno juxta stagnum Loogdae inter hostem Nechtain et exercitum Aengusa et exactatores Nechtain ceciderunt, id est, Biceot mac Moneit et filius ejus et Finguine mac Drostain, Ferot mac Finguine et alii multi. Familia Aengusia triumphavit.—An. Ult. The Stagnum Loogdeae is mentioned in Adamnan’s Life of St. Columba, and what is there stated, taken in connection with this battle, seems to place it on the Spey. See Reeves’s Adamnan, ed. 1874, pp. 258, 357. Exactor was a term applied to the Saxon thane.
