Patron ?

[edit]

The text states :

Ruaidrí Ua Conchobair was patron of the relic,[28]

Giving AFM "Annals of the Four Masters" as a source

He is mentioned in https://celt.ucc.ie/published/T100005B/ (as Ruaidhri Ua Conchobhair ) [ https://celt.ucc.ie/published/G100005B/ gaelic]

I can't find this, there nearest is

M1129.12 The altar of the great church of Cluain-mic-Nois was robbed, and jewels were carried off from thence, namely, the carracan model of Solomon's Temple, which had been presented by Maelseachlainn, son of Domhnall; the Cudin Catinum of Donnchadh, son of Flann; and the three jewels which Toirdhealbhach Ua Conchobhair had presented, i.e. a silver goblet, a silver cup with a gold cross over it, and a drinking-horn with gold; the drinking-horn of Ua Riada, King of Aradh; a silver chalice, with a burnishing of gold upon it, with an engraving by the daughter of Ruaidhri Ua Conchobhair; and the silver cup of Ceallach, successor of Patrick. But Ciaran, from whom they were stolen, afterwards revealed them.

I have a photo, is a non-commercial license possible?

[edit]

I have a decent photo of the Cross of Cong from a recent visit to the museum, however the museum makes it clear that photography is only allowed for non-commercial purposes (see policy here). I do not want to upload the photo under a free license, as it is not really a free image for commercial (re)use. Is something like a CC BY NC license an option? Any advice?
