According to the Celtic Inscribed Stones Project, the inscription is somewhat damaged but it reads ”ALATTOS MAQI BR[–”. This ogham stone is located beside ”The Three Wells”, also known as ”The Crozier Wells or ”Tobar na Bachaille”. Ogham was the old Irish alphabet containing 20 letters which were formed using a series of short strokes, Ireland’s first writing.
