Ruaidrí Ua Conchobair (Modern Irish: Ruaidhrí Ó Conchobhair, or, Ruairí Ó Conchúir; commonly anglicised as Rory O'Conor) (d. 1198) was King of Connacht from 1156 to 1186, and High King of Ireland from 1166 to 1183.[3] He was the last High King of Ireland before the Norman invasion of Ireland[4] (Brian Ua Néill and Edward Bruce both claimed the title with opposition in later years).
