#FolkyFriday: `#Tailtiu, the daughter of Mag Mor, King of Spain, and Queen of the Fir Bolg, arrived at Coll Cuan after the defeat they suffered at the Battle of Mag Tured, where she cleared the forest so that before a year had passed, a flourishing plain lay in its original place. This is the same Tailtiu who was the wife of Eochu, son of Erc and king of Ireland, until he was killed. But Tailtiu settled in Tailtiu and slept with Eochu the Rough, the son of Dui the Blind of the Túatha Dé Danann. Cian, the son of Diancecht, who was also called Scal Balb, gave him his son Lug to raise, whose mother was Eithne, the daughter of Balor with the strong blow. Then Tailtiu died, and Lug organised memorial games there every year from fifteen days before to fifteen days after Lughnasad. These games are called the gathering of Lugh, son of Eithlenn.`#Celtic
