There is a reference of a Crane bag that belonged to Cumhall, father of Fionn Mac Cumhall, which Fionn had to recover when stolen.
The crane bag contained many treasures from such deities as Manannan and Giobhniu, and would be full at high tide and empty at low tide.
The function of the crane bag appears to have been similar to that filled by the medicine bundle of native north Americans.

Brigit was supposedly born at sunrise, and thus she seems to have some solar connections, or at least of early light as with the IE dawn goddesses.
