Ogham is best known as the ancient script carved into standing stones across Ireland - but did you know that it also survived in medieval manuscripts? 📜 While its use on stone declined after the 7th century, Irish scholars continued studying, adapting, and even playfully scribbling Ogham in their manuscripts for centuries to come.

In this episode of the Podcast, we explore:
✅ How Ogham evolved from stone inscriptions to manuscript writing
✅ The St. Gall Priscian Glosses - Ogham’s unexpected use in a grammar book!
✅ Key medieval texts like Auraicept na n-Éces and In Lebor Ogaim
✅ Why Ogham remained an important part of Irish scholarly tradition
