Gangani

Dream Gaelach suite i n-iardheisceart na hÉireann ársa ba ea na Gangani (Γαγγανοι), luaite le Tolamaes ina shaothar, Geografaíocht, den dara haois AD.[1][2] Lonnaithe a bhí siad is dócha gar d'inbhear na Sionainne, idir na hAuteini ó thuaidh agus na hUellabori ó dheas. Is amhlaidh go raibh treibh den ainm céanna suite i n-iarthuaisceart na Breataine Bige, óir go dtugann Tolamaes "leithinis na nGangani" (Γαγγανὤν ἄκρον) ar Leithinis Llŷn.[3][4]
