Description:The Celts had a impressive and impeccable tradition of committing to memory immense amounts of historical and genealogical facts in the form of oral tradition . . . We can be certain that ancient Gaelic learning was carefully transmitted from generation to generation for many centuries before it was committed to writing in the late fifth century of the Christian era. At that time, when the Senchus Mór was first codified, it was ordered that every Ollamh had to be specifically qualified in history, chronology, synchronism and genealogy. He or she had to know at least 350 histories or romances by heart, and be able to recite them word-perfect at a moment's notice. An ollamh was obliged to know all the prerogatives, rights, duties, restrictions and obligations not only of the High-King but of the provincial kings and their vassals. The Leabhar na gCeart (Book of Rights) states: 'The learned historian who does not know the prerogatives and prohibitions of these kings, is not entitled to visitations or to sell his composition.' @120 pages, 6 x 9, Complete with reproduction of the original text, as well as additional commentary and appendices as listed below: A Successional List of the Kings of Munster; Genealogical Charts of the Eóghanacht and Dál gCais Kings of Munster; The Descent of Conall Corc from Eibhear & Milesius; Notes on John Daly's Preface to the 1847 EditionWe have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
