>According to this account, the Lia Fáil left Tara in AD 500 when the High King of Ireland Murtagh MacEirc loaned it to his great-uncle, Fergus (later known as Fergus the Great) for the latter's coronation in Scotland. Fergus's sub-kingdom, Dalriada, had by this time expanded to include the north-east part of Ulster and parts of western Scotland. Not long after Fergus's coronation in Scotland, he and his inner circle were caught in a freak storm off the County Antrim coast in which all perished. The stone remained in Scotland, which is why Murtagh MacEirc is recorded in history as the last Irish King to be crowned on it.
>However, historian William Forbes Skene commented: "It is somewhat remarkable that while the Scottish legend brings the stone at Scone from Ireland, the Irish legend brings the stone at Tara from Scotland

Perfectly ordinary rock or stone used to deceive people with some religious ritual into becoming slaves of a monarchy
why should I care unless the rock or stone has magical, supernatural, paranormal or technological powers
@shortstories @nugger It keeps away tigers
@Zettour @shortstories @nugger Boy, I did not see tigers when I first read that.
@shortstories @Zettour @nugger Since I have to explain the joke: I meant I saw a different ''-ger'' word that refers to dangerous animals.
