Ogham
Ogham
(
Modern Irish
or ; ) is an
Early Medieval
alphabet
used primarily to write the
early Irish language
(in the so-called
"orthodox" inscriptions
, 4th to 6th centuries), and later the
Old Irish
language (so-called
scholastic ogham
, 6th to 9th centuries). There are roughly 400 surviving orthodox inscriptions on stone monuments throughout Ireland and western Britain; the bulk of them are in southern
Munster
. The largest number outside Ireland is in
Pembrokeshire
in Wales.
