Clan Ceann Fine

 

It is important to remember that in Gaelic Ireland Chiefs were not monarchs who ruled over their people.

 

An Irish Chief was acclaimed by his clan and appointed as custodian of his kinsmen and their resources (i.e. lands) which belonged ultimately to all members of the clan.

 

In modern times, some clans use the designation "Taoiseach" or "Chief" while others prefer “Ceann Fine” or "Head of Clan" or similar designations.
