The old name for the province was Cóiced Ol nEchmacht. The name only became applied to it in the early medieval era, being named after the Connachta. The Connachta are a group of medieval Irish dynasties who claimed descent from the legendary High King Conn Cétchathach (Conn of the Hundred Battles). The area included the province of Connacht (Irish Cúige Chonnacht) and also included at various times parts of southern and western Ulster and northern Leinster. Their traditional capital was Cruachan (modern Rathcroghan, County Roscommon).
