County Cork is Ireland's largest county. The
southern part was occupied, in the time of
Ptolemy, by tribes variously called Uterni,
Uterini, Iberni, Iberi or Juerni, and were of
Spanish (Iberia) origin. This group gave its
name to the whole island of Ireland, known
otherwise as Ibernia or Hibernia. In later
times the southern part of County Cork
came to be called Corca Laoidhe, and the
central part with southern Kerry was called
Desmond. The Vodiae or Vodii occupied
the eastern coastal areas, while the
Coriondi, lived in the central and northern
parts of the present county. They were said
to descend from the Coritani tribe from the
eastern edge of England. Most of that
territory was later called Muskerry, though
the northern part was designated as
Fearmauigh (Fermoy). The principal clans
of the area were several branches of the
McCarthy's, along with O'Driscoll,
O'Callaghan, O'Sullivan, and O'Keefee.
Lesser clans or septs included O'Hartnell,
O'Canty, O'Noonan, O'Donegan, O'Casey,
