Re: Old Irish sengainn - sengann

Brian,

My thanks for the response, I see Sengann listed as an early high
king of the Fir Bolg.
I keep pondering what the root and meaning of the name might mean.

I have seen it listed online as:
"Ancient Irish" = Sengann / Sengand
"Neo-Irish" = Seangann / Seanghann
And elsewhere as Sengainn / Sengain

Any further clarifications would be greatly appreciated!
