 back to the foundations of Irish story, and are the earliest notices 

 of such occurrences.

I may add that, according to Cormac's " Glossary," Cana is a 

 name of a grade of poets who had 60 stories to repeat, and emain 

 was the name of their poetry, for which the fee was " two good 

 coloured cows."
