On Goscen, father of Caílte, and the dinnshenchas of Descert, ed. and tr. E. J. Gwynn, The metrical dindsenchas, vol. 4 (1924). De(i)scert is an element in many placenames, for which see Edmund Hogan, Onomasticon Goedelicum locorum et tribuum Hiberniae et Scotiae: an index, with identifications, to the Gaelic names of places and tribes (1910): s.v. ‘Descert Airghiall’, ‘D. mBreg’, ‘D. Ciannachta’, etc. Similarly, the Corpraige are attested in different parts of the country. If any particular place is intended, it has not been identified with any certainty. E. J. Gwynn very tentatively suggests that Descert Laigen and Corpraige Laigen may be intended,(1)n. 1 E. J. Gwynn, The metrical dindsenchas, vol. 4 (1924): notes while Gerard Murphy offers the Corpraige of northwest Limerick as being another possibility.(2)n. 2 Gerard Murphy, Duanaire Finn: The book of the lays of Fionn: Introduction, notes, appendices and glossary, vol. 3 (1953): lix.
