		CETHLENN'S ISLAND - This is a modern form of Inis Cethlenn, "Cethlenn's Island".
		Cethlenn or Kehlen was the wife of Balor, chief of the Fomorians, a race of pirates much celebrated in legend, who infested the coasts of Ireland and oppressed the inhabitants.
		Cethlenn, warlike as her husband, fought at the second battle of Moytura and inflicted a wound on the King of the Dedannans.

	Dagda - WiccanWeb.ca (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		Another Gaulish god who may be related to the Dagda is Sucellos, the striker, depicted with a hammer and cup.
		He is credited with a seventy or eighty-year reign (depending on source) over the Tuatha Dé Danann, before dying at the Brú na Bóinne, finally succumbing to a wound inflicted by Cethlenn during the first battle of Magh Tuiredh.
		The Cerne Abbas giant, a famous outline of an ithyphallic giant with a club cut into the chalky soil at Cerne Abbas, in Dorset, England, was probably produced in Roman times, but may represent the Dagda.

	Balor
		In the Celtic-Irish mythology, Balor is the god of death and the king of the Fomorians, a race of giants.

		(To Cethlenn:) He's quite an asshole, isn't he.

	A Brief Summary of The Book of Tephi, queen of Tara and Gibraltar
		At Tara, Teia Tephi’s judgment place, she was attacked with a poison blade by Cethlenn, the widow of Balor whom Lughaidh had killed in the battle.
		Eochaidh was swift to defend Teia Tephi from her attacker, but the poison blade fell from Cethlenn’s hand and wounded Eochaidh in the foot, from which wound he almost died.
		He never fully recovered from this wound and it made him forever limp as he walked, causing him to be wrongfully deified as the Daighda, the god in pain.

		Here's the information we found on the name "Cethlenn."
		The Dagda, Balor, and Cethlenn herself are mythical characters with great powers, so we can't assume that their names were used by humans.
		We were unable to find "Cethlenn" in our standard source for Irish names.

		I'm hoping you folk can assist me with clarifying a few points about "the good God".
		1) I understand that Dagda dies after being wounded by Balor's wife, Cethlenn (?Caitlin?) in one of the battles of Magh Tuireadh.
		I also read somewhere that his death occurs 120 years after the battle.

	Treat of Donegal Unionism, during the period 1919-22 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		Commenting on a 1922 proposal by a Unionist councillor to change Enniskillen’s name to "Inniskilling" the paper, whilst acknowledging Ulster-Scots sensitivities, opposed the move, displaying a keen knowledge of Gaelic folklore:
		"The island was named originally after Cethlenn, the wife of Balor, who was the chief of a race of pirates who infested the coasts of Ireland, and in the Irish authorities it is always named Inis-Cethlenn, or Cethlenn’s Island"
		Thus we can see that the Anglo-Irish tended to identify themselves as being "Irish-British" and looked on republicanism as an aberration of Irishness.

	County Fermanagh (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		It has a neat and prosperous appearance by no means habitual with Irish towns.
		Its very name, derived from Inis-Cethlenn (“Cethlenn’s Island” – Cethlenn having been the wife of an ancient chief), recalls the fact that it lies between the two lakes on an island in the winding river which connects them.
		With real antiquity it has little association beyond memories.
