Crom Dubh ((:krˠoumˠ d̪ˠuβˠ), ), meaning "dark crooked ()" (also or ''Crum Dubh'', ''Dark Crom'') is a mythological and folkloric figure of Ireland, based on the god ''Crom Cruach'', or "king idol of Ireland", mentioned in the 12th-century ''dinnseanchas'' of Magh Slécht.〔Nutt, ''The Celtic Doctrine of Re-Birth'' (1897), p. 149.〕 The festival for Crom Cruach is called ''Dé Domhnaigh Crum-Dubh'' – "Crom Dubh Sunday" –., in Ireland the first Sunday in August, but in Lochaber a term for Easter〔as in the Scottish Gaelic saying ''DiDòmhnaich Crum Dubh, plaoisgidh mi an t-ugh.'' "Crooked black Sunday, I’ll shell the egg."〕 Crom Cruach is called the chief Celtic idol of Ireland by Michael J. O'Kelly, and was located on Magh Slécht (The ''Plain of Prostrations'') in County Cavan, surrounded by twelve other idols. ==See also== * Celtic mythology in popular culture * Crom Cruach 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Crom Dubh」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
