Triallam timcheall na Fodla
Triallam timcheall na Fodla is medieval Irish topographical text.Overview
Composed by Seán Mór Ó Dubhagáin, Triallam consists of twenty verses divided into four lines. The full poem is nine hundred and sixteen lines in length. It identifies various tribes, dynasties and territories of the Gaelic-Irish, as they were immediately before the arrival of the Anglo-Normans. Ó Dubhagáin devotes one hundred and fifty-two lines to Meath, three hundred and fifty-four to Ulster, three hundred and twenty-eight to Connacht, and fifty-six to Leinster. Possibly the work was unfinished at the time of Ó Dubhagáin's death in 1372.
Sometime after Ó Dubhagáin's death, Giolla na Naomh Ó hUidhrín completed the poem.
