Roughan Crannog is said to be the last retreat of Sir Phelin O’Neill in
1641: it held out until boats were brought to the lake from Charlemont
to aid in the attack.

[122] Several soft lumps of what appeared to be a blue and a red
pigment were discovered in the crannog of Lochlee, in Ayrshire, though
the latter specimen shortly after turned blue; whilst at Lochspouts
were found two pieces of colouring matter, the one red and the other
black; and at Holderness, in Yorkshire, “red ochre” was picked up on
the site of a lake dwelling.--_Ancient Scottish Lake Dwellings_, pp.

[127] W. F. Wakeman states that fig. 127 came from Ballinderry Crannog;
and, fig. 128 from Lagore; in the _Cat. Mus., R.I.A._, they appear as
Nos. 302 and 326.
[128] Now in the British Museum.

[132] Nos. 1, 2, 3, and 4 are from Lagore; the remainder were
discovered in crannogs, but the exact sites not now known. Wilde
alludes to Nos. 10 and 11 “as conical bits of carved wood, like
chessmen. The former, however, is hollowed at the base, as if for the
insertion of a stamp, and the latter is carved upon the face of the
base, with a device not unlike a seal: each is 2½ inches high.”
