In early January 1740, #Ireland was gripped by the "Great Frost." Rivers like the #Liffey and #Shannon froze solid, and the #Boyne was crossed on foot. This extreme weather began a period of profound hardship known as the "Year of the Slaughter." While a difficult era, it remains a major milestone in Irish climatology. Explore this freezing winter and its impact on Vicipéid.

`Connla’s well is the source of the River #Boyne, which is now known as Trinity Well. #Boann went there seeking knowledge against the will of her husband, Nechtan, who owned the well. The waters rose and carried her out to sea, where in some versions she was drowned, but in others survived although maimed.`

`The grand-daughter of #Lir, god of the sea, #Sinann, visited a well, variously named the well of Segáis and Connla`s well. She ate the fruits of the Tree of Knowledge, although she knew it was forbidden. As a result, the waters of the well rose up, carrying her out to sea and drowning her there.` This way she created the river #Shannon.

Thoroughly enjoyed my #volunteer visit to the Boyne Valley Viking Experience at Slane Castle weekend past. What an incredible spectacle and positive vibe energy around the camp. Made a lot of new friends, and even got to row a #Viking boat (from the series Vikings) along the #Boyne River. Here’s to next year! #reenactment #history

`The other name for the #Boyne is Sruth Segsa, “river of Segáis,” a name given to #Bóand herself in the #Otherworld. If the well were in the possession of Bóand from the start, as this implies, rather than of her husband #Nechtan, the likelihood that her drowning was not punishment but creation is heightened.`
