Inchcailloch ((スコットランド・ゲール語:Innis na Cailleach)) is an island on Loch Lomond in Scotland. It is 85 m at its highest point. It is also known to some as Inchebroida. The name Inchcailloch means "Isle of the old woman" or "Isle of the Cowled Woman" in the Scottish Gaelic language. Saint Kentigerna came to Scotland from Ireland to preach and spread Christianity and the island is thought to be named after her. ==Geography and geology== Inchmurrin, Creinch, Torrinch, and Inchcailloch all form part of the Highland boundary fault.〔Worsley, Harry ''Loch Lomond: The Loch, the Lairds and the Legends'' ISBN 978-1-898169-34-5 Lindsay Publications (Glasgow) 1988〕 There is a burial ground in the north of the island, and a bay, Port Bawn ((スコットランド・ゲール語:Port Bàn); (英語:White Port)), in the south. Like many of the Loch Lomond islands, it is quite heavily wooded. 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「Inchcailloch」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
