Explanatory note

Gaeilge

the black little ring-fort

Féach ‘moated site’ san Fhardal Seandálaíochta (www.archaeology.ie). Do 1590 ‘Raynduffe’ léigh ‘Rahinduffe’ (botún is ea -y- ar -hi- le -h- fada íseal, is dócha). Ba é /du/ gnáthfhuaimniú dubh sa chanúint — seo a thug ar Ó Donnabháin an fhoirm infhillte 1838 ‘Ráithín duibh’ a mholadh, is dócha. Ach faightear an litriú -duff mar bhéarlú stairiúil ar dubh i ngach aon chearn den tír.
