Note 70 — THE BOOK OF THE DEAN OF LISMORE.
Thomas Maclauchlan translation
“Bran,” the name of Finn’s celebrated hound, is here obviously the name of a man. There is a “strath” or valley in Rosshire which still retains his name, Strathbran. The extent to which Fenian names are found in Scottish topography, goes far to show the close connexion of the Feine themselves with that country.
