Ogham is a uniquely Irish form of writing and first appeared in Ireland around the 4th century AD and stayed in use until around the 9th century AD. It was believed by the ancient Celts, to have been created by the god "Ogha", the Celtic god of eloquence and these ogham inscriptions are the earliest written evidence for the Irish language. It marked a major point in the history of this island, for up until then, the myths and legends, kings and heroes, had been remembered in the traditional Celtic oral culture, which was a central part of the Celtic way of life.In this book, you will find the complete and illustrated index to every ogham stone discovered in Ireland to date. The book contains 100's of photographs and sketches, stone descriptions and dates of ogham script. Also included are the locations and co-ordinates of the stones and many translations. The book is divided into the four provinces of Ireland and then into each individual county.

From the Branch
Author: Deanne Quarrie

ISBN: 9781450574846
Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 212
Book Description
It is my hope in this book that I can give you a few ideas of what the ogham is, where it might have come from, and how I (and others) use it as a spiritual tool. There is much we do not know about the Ogham. It is not known for sure if the ogham was ever used for divination. And finally, it is not known if the letters were ever used to designate lunar cycles. What is known is that there were many oghams - the letters themselves, bird oghams, tree oghams, etc. The letters being symbols for certain words, not all trees as it thought by most today. What we have is a system that uses several oghams in combination that is not necessarily historically correct but that which works for us as a tool for learning. This book deals with those teachings set in a framework of the lunar year.
