Descriptions and Models by Ogham in 3D Project

Overview

Ogham Stone, Colbinstown V (CIIC 23) (National Monument KD032-044005-)
Text from Ogham in 3D page URI: https://ogham.celt.dias.ie/23._Colbinstown_V
The site, a gravel mound known as Killeen Cormac (Cell Ingen Cormaic/Cell Fhine Cormaic?) is classified as a ‘Burial Ground’, but may be regarded as an important early ecclesiastical site. A recent geophysical survey of the site (Greene 2013, 26-47) shows traces of a trivallate enclosure of which the burial ground is just the nucleus of a much more extensive early Christian foundation. Seven ogham stones were originally found at this site, at least one of which was broken up and re-used in the construction of a surrounding wall in the late 19th century (Macalister 1945, 26). One of the ogham stones, currently on display in the National Museum of Ireland, is a bilingual stone (rare in Ireland) with both an ogham inscription and one in Latin (CIIC. 19 Colbinstown I).

Text: ‘Very fine scores…set at an unusual slope with reference to the stemline. Only two vowel notches remain’ (Macalister 1945, 28). Macalister’s initial A, the second S and the M are unclear.

Ogham in 3D (https://ogham.celt.dias.ie/) is a project to research and digitise ogham inscriptions/stones and make 3d models of the stones freely available online. Their Sketchfab page contains examples of experimental/learning models created using photogrammetry. More models and descriptions of ogham stones, including the seven stones of Killeen Cormac, are available from their website ogham.celt.dias.ie.
