Medb has entered evil contracts" (7th-century poem attributed to

Cín Dromma Snechtai, associated with Bangor, is thought to have included versions of these five texts: •

Conchobor" •
Fíl and grían Glinne Aí •

Scáthach" • Material related to Cú Roí, such as
Amra Con Roí and
Aided Con Roi • References in Old Irish law, e.g.
Cethairslicht Athgabálae. Here follows a list of tales which are assigned to the Ulster Cycle, although it does not claim to be exhaustive. The classification according to 'genre' followed here is merely a convenient tool to bring clarity to a large body of texts, but it is not the only possible one nor does it necessarily reflect contemporary approaches of classifying texts. ;
