Transliteration

MANU MAGUNO GATI MOCOI MACORBO

Translation

'of M. boy (Magounnos) of G. decendant of M.'

Commentary

Regarding MAGUNO, Rhys (1899, 392) suggested that this may be a genitive of Magunus (derivative of and synonymous with Latin Magus).

The tribal/sept name MACORBO is also found on nearby CIIC 283. Garramillon and CIIC. 28 Churchclara, Co. Kilkenny. MacNeill's (1931, 42) tempting sugesstion that this be equated with the Dál Maic-Cuirp, one of the Déisi Muman septs, is doubtful (McManus 1991, 111, 180 n.59).
