As a spoken language, Irish predates English by a millennium.
Its early writing system, Ogham, written vertically as a series of lines and strokes, has an alphabet based on trees.

Fly Agaric holds an important place in Irish Mythology.
In The Tain it was fed to slaves and their concentrated urine was drunk by Cùchulainn before he went into battle against Queen Medb’s army, to help him go berserk.
