He is associated with Mag Slecht, a mound near Ballymagauran, of TuUyhead Barony, County Cavan. The Welsh god Pen Crug or Cruc, Chief of the Mound, answered to the Irish deity. He was certainly the Sun-god, for his image was surrounded by the fixed representations of twelve lesser divinities. Irish imagination pictured the first of gold, the others of silver. They were certainly stones; and, as Andrew Lang remarks, "All Greek temples had their fetish stone, and each stone had its legend. " The ...one surrounded with the twelve would readily suggest the Sun and the twelve Signs of the Zodiac. An old reference to Crom has been recorded in O-ham letters, thus translated, " In it Cruach was and twelve idds of stone around him, and himself of gold. " In thc^ old book Dinseanchus we read thus of Crom Cruach— "lo whom they sacrificed the first-born of every ollspring, /i2 2 Old Irish Religions. and the first-born of their children.
