Queen Medb, a legendary figure in Irish mythology, holds iconic status in Ireland’s history and imagination. Featured on the old Irish pound note and inspiring figures like Theodore Roosevelt, she symbolizes power and influence. Medb’s story is central to the Táin Bó Cúailnge, Ireland’s national epic, which begins and ends at Rathcroghan (Cruachan Aí), the ancient royal site of Connacht.
