He was killed fighting in Leinster, probably attempting to restore the fortunes of the kings of Munster by reimposing authority over that province. Cormac was regarded as a saintly figure after his death, and his shrine at Castledermot, County Kildare, was said to be the site of miracles. He was reputed to be a great scholar, being credited with the authorship of the Sanas Cormaic (Cormacs Glossary), and the now-lost Psalter of Cashel, among other works. The reliability of some of the traditions concerning Cormac is doubtful.
