Oghma was the Irish God of literature and eloquence. He was the son of De Dagda and the champion of the Tuatha de Dannan. He carried a huge club. He invented the Ogham script which is named after him. It was originally intended to be carved upon the edges of standig stones. He was also called Cermait, which means `honey-mouthed` or Grainainech, meaning `sunny-faced`. He married Etain, daughter of Diancecht, the God of Medicine, and got several children. His son Cairpre became the professional bard of the Tuatha de Dannan. |
