Term: Lia Fail

DEFINITION:
(Pronounced “lee-ah-foyl”) The Stone of Destiny which has been brought from the Otherworld city of Falias, and which stood at Tara. Its function was to declare the True High King of Ireland by screaming aloud when the successful candidate stood upon it. The stone which stands at Tara today is probably not the original.
