Celtic Studies (04/03)
Camulus was looking a little wild-eyed. As if a horde of miniature mammoth-like creatures had infested his apartment and ate through half of his books, as well as attempting to nest in his sarcophagus. Not that they necessarily had, he just looked that way.
"Madainn mhath, a chlas," he began. "The Fianna. As I said before, while Fionn was their leader, they were not named for him. They were an elite group of warriors and it was extremely difficult to join their ranks. I had planned a few practical demonstrations of the Fianna trials, but I'm sure the administration wouldn't appreciate seriously maiming my students. Even in the pursuit of knowledge." Camulus looks very disgruntled at this fact. He goes on to the describe the maxims and trials of the Fianna, writing notes up on the board.
"Now, the chief warriors of the Fianna were the following men, each great in their deeds and so on. I'd like each of you to read up on a member of the Fianna from this list and give a short oral presentation next class. I'll cover whichever ones are left out, let me know who you are researching before you leave."
He wrote the list of names up on the board.
Caoilte mac Ronan
Goll mac Morna
Conan mac Morna - more commonly known as Conan Maol or Conan the Bald
Oisin mac Fionn
Oscar mac Oisin
"Diarmaid ui Duibhne was also one of the major Fenian warriors, but we've already covered his particular story."
