Who was Artgal of Alt Clut?

Artgal was a king of Alt Clut and Strathclyde, a Brythonic kingdom in the Hen Ogledd or "Old North" of Britain, for some time in the mid-9th century. Artgal's reign is notable in that he is the first certain king of Alt Clut since Dumnagual III of Alt Clut a century before. He was killed in 872, evidently with the consent of Constantín mac Cináeda, King of the Picts at the time. He is thought to have been succeeded by his son Run.
