Abstract
Since Lebor Gabála Érenn became the canon of Irish historiography shortly after its first appearance in  the  eleventh  century (Carey 1993, 6), the doctrine  that Amairgen, son  of  Míl  of  Spain,  delivered  the  first judgment in  Ireland  has  accordingly  been accepted  by  medieval  Irish  literati. This  doctrine  has  been  summarised  in (1) below, cited from the Book of Leinster copy of Lebor Gabála, while the same passage is found in copies  representing all  three  of  the  so-called  first,  second  and  third  redactions(Macalister 1942, 46, 68, 94).
