Beli II of Alt Clut was the ruler of Alt Clut (the area around modern Dumbarton Rock) for some period in the early eighth century. According to the "Harleian genealogies", he was the son of Elfin, one of his predecessors as king. We know from this genealogy that he was the father of Teudebur, ["Harleian genealogy of the Kings of Alt Clut", [http://www.kmatthews.org.uk/history/harleian_genealogies/5.html here] .] his probably successor on the throne. His obiturary is noted in the "Annals of Ulster" under the year 722, where he is called "Bile mc. Eilphin, rex Alo Cluathe". [AU722.3, [http://www.ucc.ie/celt/published/G100001A/text292.html here] ]
