Please see at http://www.libraryireland.com/Pedigrees1/Monarchs.php
"Rath Laegaire [Rath Laery], situated south of Rath Righ, was so called from Laegaire, king of Ireland in St. Patrick's time, by whom, no doubt, it was erected. It is about 300 feet in diameter, and was surrounded by two great rings or ramparts, of which one is still very well marked, and the other can be partially traced. Laegaire was buried in the south-east rampart of this rath, fully armed and standing up in the grave, with his face towards the south as if fighting against his enemies, the Leinster men. (See chap. xxvii., sect. 3, farther on.)"
The above text has come from http://www.libraryireland.com/SocialHistoryAncientIrela...7.php and, as some will already know, it seems to have been written around 1908 by Patrick Weston Joyce LL.D. (Doctor of Laws), who was President of the Royal Society of Antiquaries of Ireland from 1906 to 1908.
The reason I believe the "two" heritage sites in question (Rath Lugh and Rath Laegaire) MIGHT (?) be one and the same, relates to the contents of the two images provided below.
The original copies of the two images below can be found at the following addresses:
First image: http://www.libraryireland.com/SocialHistoryAncientIrela...7.php (Circa 1908)
and
Second image: http://dublinstreams.blogspot.com/2007_08_05_archive.html (Friday, 10 August 2007).
Assuming the "two" are the same, my hope is that this information may help all those who are trying to protect what we now call "Rath Lugh", particularly those people who are at the present time standing guard at the site.
Thought for Today : "A people that have forgotten their heritage, are a people who have lost faith in themselves." (Winston Churchill)
