Abstract
White cows with red ears often appear in early Irish literature and folklore as signs of the fairy otherworld. Osborn Bergin suggested that there may be a historical basis for this folk motif. This paper takes up Bergin’s suggestion and further examines white, red-eared cattle and their appearance in early Irish literature.
