Medieval Irish tale lists - § 2. Togla
Togail Bruidne Bélcon Breifne

Belongs to context
§ 2. Togla
List of togla (pl. of togail ‘destruction, attack’) and similar titles in tale-lists A and B, ed. Proinsias Mac Cana, The learned tales of medieval Ireland (1980): 41 (A), 54–55 (Ba), 57–58 (Bb), with occasional reference to list X. While list A has a consecutive list, list B devotes two separate sections to them, which are here distinguished as Ba (all MSS) and Bb (not in Rawl. B. 512), roughly corresponding to the second and first halves of list A respectively. Titles with an alternative term in lieu of togail are attested in the section represented by the first half of A and by Bb. See also the list of oircne.
