What is recorded here

Recorded as sandstone (H 4ft 11in; 1ft 10in x 5in), this is one of 15 ogham stones (CO055-007002-; CO055-007005- - CO055-007018-) found covering a souterrain (CO055-007003-). The stone is currently on permanent display in the Stone Corridor, University College Cork (for details see CO074-162----). The inscription is on the dexter angle and top of the stone in "knife-cut" scores and in poor condition. It was read by Macalister (1945, 86, no. 85) as GRILAGNI MAQI SCILAGNI and by McManus (2004, 16-7, no. 9.) as grILAGNI MAQi SCILAGNi.
