Because of the legendary quality of the earliest accounts of her life, there is much debate among many secular scholars and even faithful Christians as to the authenticity of her biographies. Tradition says that she died between 522 and 526.

A more likely explanation is that the Christian Saint Brigid was actually based on the Irish deity Brigid, daughter of Dagda. The early Christian missionaries to Ireland created the legend of St Brigid to deflect Irish faith away from their ancient gods.
