What is recorded here

Eochu Ollathair remembers Balor coming west to fight again on the flat ground below Aileach, north of Letterkenny. The story lives in Donegal as a poem and tradition, not an archaeological certainty. It paints the land as a stage for ancient violence, where memory itself becomes a battlefield.

Eochu Ollathair places this mythic remembrance on the flat ground below Aileach, north of Letterkenny. It is presented as his poem and living tradition, not as a claim that the battlefield location has been proved by archaeology.

The Second Battle of Mag Tuired was a mythological battle in Irish tradition, fought between the Tuatha Dé Danann, led by Nuada, and the Fomorians, led by Balor of the Evil Eye, around the 4th century BCE according to later Christian chronologies. The Tuatha Dé Danann emerged victorious, securing their dominance in Ireland and setting the stage for their later rule before the arrival of the Milesians.

This point identifies the remembered ground. It does not grant access to private land.
