Unreferenced date December 2009 Drest was monarch king of the Picts from 724 until 726 or 729. He succeeded Nechtan mac Der Ilei when the latter abdicated and entered a monastery in 724. Neither the Annals of Ulster , nor the Annals of Tigernach , name Drest s father. The earlier versions of the Pictish Chronicle king lists simply name Drest and Elpin as kings after Nechtan. However, a late version, which includes Nechtan s second reign in 728&ndash 729, makes Drest s father one Talorgan. This version includes the otherwise unknown Carnach son of Ferach and engus son of Bridei, and is generally not such as would inspire great confidence. Since Nechtan abidicated in favour of Drest, some kinship between them seems probable. A number of Nechtan s sons are reported to have died, so that Drest, whether a nephew, a son in law or cousin may have been Nechtan s nearest male kin. It may be that Drest was the son of the Talorg son of Drostan, brother of Nechtan &mdash a half brother or, perhaps a foster brother &mdash who had been imprisoned in 713. Whatever his descent, Drest s rule appears to have been quickly challenged. In 725, Simul son of Drest was imprisoned, but by whom is unknown. In 726 Nechtan was imprisoned by Drest, following which Alp n I of the Picts Alp n , the Elpin of the king lists, deposed Drest. By 728 it appears that Drest, Nechtan, Alp n and engus I of the Picts engus mac Fergusa were engaged in a war for the Pictish throne. Drest was killed in battle against engus at Dromo Dergg Blathuug possibly Drumderg, near Blairgowrie and Rattray Blairgowrie in 729. Whether ....
