== Mythological parallels ==
Nuada Airgetlám was the first king of the [[Tuatha Dé Danann]], who was disqualified from kingship after losing his hand (or arm) in battle, but restored after he was given a working silver one by the physician [[Dian Cecht]] and the wright [[Creidhne]] (gaining the epithet ''Airgetlám'', 'silver hand'), and later a flesh and blood one by Dian Cecht's son [[Miach]].

The legendary Welsh hero [[Lludd Llaw Eraint|Nudd]] appears in the [[Welsh Triads|Triads]] as one of the three most generous men in Wales, along with his two cousins, [[Rhydderch Hael]] and [[Mordaf Hael]]. His two sons are known as [[Edern ap Nudd]] and [[Gwyn ap Nudd]]. Nudd may also be called ''Lludd'', and seems to be linked to other figures of the same name, such as the son of [[Beli Mawr]] in ''[[Cyfranc Lludd a Llefelys]]''.<ref name="MacKillop_Nodons" />
