Black Pig's Dyke

The Black Pig's Dyke ((アイルランド語:Claí na Muice Duibhe))〔(Pig's Dyke&lang=1 Focal.ie )〕 or Worm's Ditch ((アイルランド語:Claí na Péiste))〔 is a series of discontinuous linear earthworks in southwest Ulster and northeast Connacht, Ireland. Remnants can be found in north County Leitrim, north County Longford, County Cavan, County Monaghan and County Fermanagh (see the map below). Sometimes, the Dorsey enclosure in County Armagh and the Dane's Cast in County Down are considered to be part of the dyke.
Similar earthworks can be found throughout Ireland,〔''The Early Development of Irish Society''. Cambridge University Press, 1969. pp.88–89〕 although the Black Pig's Dyke is the best known. A notable example is the Claidh Dubh ("black ditch"), anglicised Clyduff or Cleeduff, in eastern County Cork. It has three sections, the longest of which runs north-south for from the Ballyhoura Hills to the Nagle Mountains.〔(''Eachtra Journal: Issue 10'' ). p.11〕〔http://www.excavations.ie/Pages/Details.php?County=Cork&Year=&id=2774〕〔http://www.excavations.ie/Pages/Details.php?Year=&County=Cork&id=6087〕
__NOTOC__
==Name==
In counties Leitrim and Cavan the earthworks are generally called the Black Pig's Dyke or Dike. In County Longford it is called the Black Pig's Race, while in the Cavan–Monaghan border area it is called Black Pig's Dyke or Worm Ditch. The ditches take their names from Gaelic folklore. One tale says that a huge black boar tore up the countryside with its large tusks. Another says that the ditches were made by a huge worm.
