Cornouaille
Cornouaille (; br, Kernev, Kerne) is a historical region on the west coast of Brittany in West France. The name is cognate with Cornwall in neighbouring Great Britain. This can be explained by the settlement of Cornouaille by migrant princes from Cornwall who created an independent principality founded by Rivelen Mor Marthou, and the founding of the Bishopric of Cornouaille by ancient saints from Cornwall. Celtic Britons and the settlers in Brittany spoke a common language, which later evolved into Breton, Welsh and Cornish. Etymology The toponym Cornouaille was established in the early Middle Ages in the southwest of the Breton peninsula. Prior to this, following the withdrawal of Rome from Britain, other British migrants from what is now modern Devon had established the region of ''Domnonea'' (in Breton) or '' Domnonée'' (in French) in the north of the peninsula, taken from the Latin ''Dumnonia''. The region was first mentioned in surviving records by a ''Cornouaill ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Kerne Bridge
Kerne Bridge is a hamlet in south Herefordshire, England, about south of the market town of Ross-on-Wye on the B4234 Ross-on-Wye to Coleford road. Situated on the left bank of the River Wye, it takes its modern name from the nineteenth century bridge over the river. It was once a significant stop on the now disused and abandoned Monmouth to Ross-on-Wye railway, and is now known for a popular canoe-launching site. It marks the northern start of the Upper Wye Gorge and is situated in the heart of the Wye Valley Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. History The history of the hamlet began when a primitive manually-operated mill for grinding corn came to be established there. This type of mill was known in Old English as a ''cweorn''. The presence of the mill gave the name - The Cweorn - to the small settlement which began to be built up around the mill. Over time the spelling of the name of the settlement was simplified to The Quern. Records show that it was still known that w ...

Rapparee
Rapparees or raparees (from the Irish ''ropairí'', plural of ''ropaire'', whose primary meaning is "thruster, stabber," and by extension a wielder of the half-pike or pike), were Irish guerrilla fighters who operated on the Jacobite side during the 1690s Williamite war in Ireland. Subsequently, the name was also given to bandits and highwaymen in Ireland – many former guerrillas having turned to crime after the war ended. They were in many cases outlawed members of the Gaelic nobility of Ireland and still held to the code of conduct of the traditional chiefs of the Irish clans. They share many similarities with the hajduks of Eastern Europe. Wood kerne and Tories There was a long tradition of guerrilla warfare in Ireland before the 1690s. Irish irregulars in the 16th century were known as ''ceithearnaigh choille'', "wood-kerne", a reference to native Irish foot-soldiers called ''ceithearnaigh'', or "kerne". In the Irish Confederate Wars of the 1640s and 50s, irreg ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
