What is recorded here
Inscribed slab in Toureen is an inscribed slab in Toureen, County Tipperary, Ireland. Petrie recorded the small fragment at Toureen Peacaun monastery in 1878, but the piece is now unlocated and appears lost. Okasha and Forsyth used that earlier description and sketch to identify a broken slab about 0.135 metres high and 0.215 metres wide, preserving only faded and incomplete writing.
Formerly situated at Toureen Peacaun monastery (TS075-023----) and currently unlocated. Recorded by Petrie (1878, 33-4) and appears to have been subsequently lost. Based on Petrie’s description and sketch it is described by Okasha and Forsyth (2001, 318-19), as a small slab (H c. 0.135m; Wth c. 0.215m) which was a fragment of a slab of unknown form with fragmentary and deteriorated text. It is listed as Toureen Peacaun 59 (ibid.).
