Ingimundr's name as it appears on folio 58v of Oxford Jesus College MS 111 (the Red Book of Hergest): "Jgmỽnd".[1]

Ingimundr,[2] also known as Hingamund,[3] Igmunt,[4] Ingimund,[5] was a tenth century Viking warlord. In 902, Irish sources record that the Vikings were driven from Dublin. It is almost certainly in the context of this exodus that Ingimundr appears on record. He is recorded to have led the abortive settlement of Norsemen on Anglesey, before being driven out from there as well. He appears to have then led his folk to the Wirral peninsula, where the English allowed him to settle his followers. Ingimundr's invasion of Anglesey may be the most notable Viking attack in Welsh history.
