Speke Keeill Ogham Stone (Manx Cross 205)

Archaeology

This broken slab was found at Speke Keeill (IOMHER 0699.00) during excavations by the Time Team TV programme in 2006. One face bears a damaged ogham inscription, the interpretation of which is difficult. One reading suggests a rather abstract interpretation, translating the words, 'corner', 'fifty' and 'group', but another has proposed, '...son of the tribe of Catiall..'
