With such a breadth of knowledge here; I was wondering if anyone had come across, or had sources for a story linking the?Eóganachta with a white stag or the symbol of a white stag on a blue banner?
I've only seen it mentioned in passing but can't find it anymore, and am wondering if the person just made it up or if it's in some manuscript somewhere?
Basically they said that Munster's earliest noted banner was a white stag on a blue banner for one of the Eóganacht kings. I?think the reason they gave was that?Mug Nuadat (or possibly?Ailill Ollamh or ?ogan Mór) had a dream about a white stag.
I can find next to nothing online now, other than a throwaway line on what looks like a computer game forum;?
"Munster's earliest noted banner for the Eoghanacht is a white stag on a blue field, and then later three crowns on a blue field"
Is it noted at all as far as anyone knows? Would love it if anyone could point me in the right direction, or alternatively if it's not true at all.
Thanks
