The Triads of Ireland by Kuno Meyer

"The Triads of Ireland" by Kuno Meyer is a collection of Old Irish triads published in 1906. This compilation of approximately 256 sayings, mostly arranged in groups of three, covers diverse subjects including monasteries, geography, law, customs, and behavior. Dating to the ninth century, these memorable nuggets of wisdom served as teaching tools in medieval Ireland. The triads offer glimpses into Irish culture and thought, organized by topic yet defying simple categorization, revealing a complex society through pithy statements.
