Asset Overview

This ogham stone (H c. 0.6m) was unearthed in the graveyard (ME016-006007-) of the early monastery of Diseart Chiarain (ME016-006----) in 1898 and later set up incorrectly with the top pointing downwards. It is just N of the church remains, and has been read as: COVAGNI MAQI MUCOI LUGUNI (O'Connell 1957, 26; Macalister 1945, vol. 1, 46). However, a more recent interpretation (Herity and Newman Maguire 2012) has identified further letters and provides the reading: T_COVAGNI MAQI MUCOI LUGUNI ITI (http://webgis.archaeology.ie/historicenvironment/, ME016-006006-).
