Ancient Sli Mor from Dublin to Galway

Fragments of the Sli Mor from Turoe to Athenry (two lower) and from Athenry Southwest (top) to Caheradrine's massive 'toll-gate' entrepot near Ath Clee Magh Ri seaport terminal at Clarenbridge (It is reconed there to be 'Ireland's oldest highway'). Clarinbridge's Black Rock was its western terminal and outlet through Ballynamanagh River to the Dunbulcaun Bay ancient seaport. From Caheradrine (Fidig fort) where Eoghan Mor of Munster based his Duhallow defenders, the Oga Bethra; Lec 164; Rc. xvii, 7; Ca 302; Laud 610) it diverged to Ath Clee Magh Ri, Caher na Managh on Clarin River, Roy Mor, Dun Cethelen and Stradbally. It converged on Turoe but not on Tara, confounding pseudo history. The Sli Mor segment from Turoe to Athenry and thence to Clarinbridge may have been built when Medb was queen of Ól nÉcmacht and had her royal residence at Athenry. The older segment of the Sli Mor which ran straight from Turoe to Ath Clee Magh Ri near Clarinbridge then became known as Rot na Ri.
