Dr. Mathias Nordvig and @rootinthewell.bsky.social interviewed me on The Sacred Flame podcast recently. We talked vikings, of course, and a lot about how they're portrayed in popular media. www.youtube.com/watch?v=nAv6...

Here is the link to the new Ogham in 3D page about I-KER-055, the Kilmalkedar stone: ogham.celt.dias.ie/I-KER-055. ANM doesn't mean "soul", but "name" or "inscription", so it's the "inscription for Máel-Inbir son of Brocán". The form of the language is very late, perhaps already early Old Irish.

OghamCill Maoilchéadair | Kilmalkedar (I-KER-055)

Last recorded location(s): In situ, on the N side of the pathway leading through the graveyard to the church. This stone was recorded in 3D in 2013 as part of the Ogham in 3D project in collaboration with the Discovery Programme.
