Cnucha Cnoc os cionn Life

form undefined

Irish poem which has come down as a shorter version (6 st.) in Dinnshenchas Érenn dealing with the origin of the place-name Cnucha. A considerably longer one (64 st.) is attributed to Caílte in Agallamh bheag. Here the first 7 stanzas contain much overlap with the shorter version but then continues at some length with the kings of Ireland, with Finn and with Caílte’s present.
