Though they look the same, Tuath ("tribe") and Tuaith ("north") are from two separate roots - check it for yourself in Pokorny's IEW

Chris,
 
Why, this is exactly what I argued in my corrective reaction to your comment on 'north', 'left', 'evil' etc., which seemed to imply that you regard these words as related on account of their superficial similarity (you did gloss tuath as 'left/evil', didn't you?).
