County Kerry was the territory of the
Velabri or Vellibori in the second
century A.D. according to Ptolemy.
They were thought to be descendants of
the Iberi of Spain. Later, the area formed
part of the district of Desmond, or South
Munster, which included county Cork.
The Kerry portion was referred to as
Ciaruidhe Luachra or "the rocky district
on the great lake or water." The
O'Connor clan dominated the northern
tip of Kerry, and to their south was the
FitzMaurice clan. Central Kerry
belonged to the FitzGerald clan and two
McCarthy clans: McCarthy Mor and
McCarthy Muskerry. The southernmost
part of the area was the territory of the
O'Sullivan clan. Lesser clans and septs
included Cantillon, O'Leane, Stack,
McSweeney, McElligot, O'Brosnahan,
O'Shea, O'Falvey, O'Long, Trant,
O'Moriarty, O'Gallivan, O'Guiney,
O'Rahilly, O'Cahill, O'Donaghue,
O'Downey, O'Leahy, McGillicuddy,
O'Connell, O'Kelliher, O'Quill, and
O'Brennan.
