Line 41: ==History== The old name of Drumcliff was Cnoc na Teagh (trans. Hill of the House). The village is one of several possible locations in ~~Co.~~County Sligo for the settlement of [[Nagnata]] as marked on [[Claudius Ptolemy]]'s early map of Ireland. The name Codnach means placid or even tempered river. A battle was fought on this river in A.M. 3656 (1538 BC) by the legendary [[Milesians (Irish)\|Milesian]] monarch Tigearnmas. An ancient topographical poem in the [[Dinnsenchus]] (Lore of Places) tells how the baskets in the name refer to the wicker frames of a fleet of boats that was once made here. The poem is part of a lost epic story involving the Fomorians in a raid on an island in the western ocean.
