Cavehill~ Beann Mhadagáin~ ‘Madagán’s peak’, Madagán being the king of Ulster who died in 856AD. There are in fact three caves on the face of the cliff which stands in the townland of BALLYAGHAGAN. It is also referred to as Binn Uamha [bin oova] ‘peak cliff of the cave’.

Due to popular demand here are the names of the Belfast Hills as Gaeilge. You'll notice some names don't translate directly & we'll be doing a series later this year charting how the Irish language, natural landscape and human history have impacted place names.

Divis~ Dubhais ~ ‘black ridge or peak’ It includes the neighbouring peak Black Mountain. It is possible that the name Black Mountain is in fact a translation of the Irish name Dubhais and that originally Divis and Black Mountain were thought of as being all the one mountain.

Muckanaghederdauhaulia ~ "Muiceanach idir Dhá Sháile" – “pig-shaped hill between two seas”. The longest place name in Ireland. It’s a small village in the Connemara Gaeltacht between Camus (Camas) and Carraroe, (An Cheathrú Rua) in County Galway. #Placename #Logainm

🧵1/ In Ireland, we used to see the land as a body. A living, breathing form. Every hill, every curve, every place—part of us. But colonisation didn’t just take the land. It took the meaning. It took the names. Let me show you what we’ve lost👇
