Script error: No such module "Lang". (or Script error: No such module "Lang".) was the Irish equivalent of the Welsh Script error: No such module "Lang". and the Germanic weregild, a form of tribute paid in reparation for murder or other major crimes. The term survived into the sixteenth century as Script error: No such module "Lang"., by then relating only to compensation for the killing of an Irishman. In the case of homicide, if the attacker fled, the fine had to be paid by the tribe to which he belonged and the criminal's soul.[1]
In Irish mythology the Script error: No such module "Lang". takes an important place. In the Script error: No such module "Lang"., the children of Tuireann owed an Script error: No such module "Lang". to Lugh Lamhfada. Lugh set them a series of seemingly impossible quests as recompense. They achieved them all, but were fatally wounded in completing the last one.[citation needed]
