Dive into the Irish myth of Tin B Cuailnge, where Queen Meadhbh of Connaught seeks to capture the fabled brown bull of Ulster. --C Chulainn, hero of Ulster, stood at the ford at Cooley, ready to face an entire army single handedly all for the sake of a single bull. The army in question belonged to Queen Meadhbh of Connaught. Enraged at her husbands possession of a white bull of awesome strength, she set out to capture the fabled brown bull of Ulster at any cost.
