MEGALITHS in IRELAND DECIPHERED LONGFORD COUNTY AUGHNACLIFFE URSA MINOR Only megaliths.co.uk megaliths.net and megaliths.de are original megalithic decipherment sites.

See MacBain's Dictionary
where it is written:
"eigh a file, Irish oighe: *agiâ; root ag of English axe, Gothic aqizi"

we might add the perhaps older Indo-Europan root as e.g. Latvian ASS "sharp"

The cliffe in Aughnacliffe may be
"clip a hook, clip, Irish clipe, a gaff; from the English clip. See cleibe"

i.e. by logic, a hooked axe, a crooked axe, a "cliffed" axe, as Ursa Minor is.
