the idol "Crom Cruach", in Co. Leitrim. He introduced rank distinction
by the wearing of coulours. One for a slave, three for a soldier or
young lord, six for a chief professor of the liberal arts, and that of a
King or Queen. Possibly the origin of the Scotch plaid.

14. DEIN; Denied the Monarchy by Sedne. Gold necklaces first worn by

Fola". He was celebrated as a philosophical statesman, for his
improvements in the science of government, and for the mild and
enlightened principles of his policy. He instituted an assembly
resembling modern parliments that convened every three years. The
poet-historians from all the provinces related all that had happened
between assemblies. It was during these assemblies that family
genealogies were carefully examined, corrected, and then entered in the
national records kept at Tara. These records were of great importance
because a man's right of inheritance to property depended on his
genealogy. These records were ordered by Fodhla to be 'written' and
carefully preserved at Tara. They were added to after each meeting and in King Cormac's time they were named "The Psalter of Tara".
It appears from the ancient chonicles that some form of writing was known in that time. Eithrial, the 11th Monarch, was also credited with writing in his own hand, the history of the Gaels (or Gadelians).
