UURAD OF THE PICTS

'Ferat son of Bargoit' (died 842?) was king of the Picts, perhaps from 839 onwards.
No two versions of the king-lists known as the Pictish Chronicle give exactly the same version of his name.^[1] Ferat, or Uurad in Pictish, is the most common reading, but Feradach may be intended.^[2]
Thomas Owen Clancy's interpretation of the Drosten Stone would make Ferat one of only two Pictish monarchs, the other being Caustantín mac Fergusa, whose name is read on a Pictish stone.
His sons may have included Bruide, Ciniod, and Drest, who contested for power in Pictland with kin groups led by Bruide son of Fokel, and Cináed mac Ailpín.
