Celtic Ogham Script carved onto the Maglocunus Stone forming a window sill in St. Brynach's Church in Nevern, Pembrokeshire.


The Maglocunus Stone forms a window sill in the Nave, south wall of St. Brynach's Church in Nevern. It is dated to the 5th or early 6th century and bears early Celtic Ogham script, and (fainter, on the top) Latin inscriptions. The translation of the Ogham is "MAGLICUNAS MAQI CLUTR[]". The Latin inscription reads "MAGLOCVN(i) FILI CLVTOR", which translates as "(The stone) OF MAGLOCUNUS SON OF CLUTORIUS".
