This article re-examines the reference to three lubai gall , specifically sraif, lungait , and airgetlam , in paragraph 9 of the seventh-century medico-legal text Bretha Déin Chécht 'The judgments of Dían Cécht'. It offers an alternative translation of the phrase lubai gall as 'remedies used by foreign physicians' or 'mineral remedies' and two suggestions for the mysterious substance lungait . Finally, it examines a phrase from Uraicecht Becc that is quite similar to the phrase in Bretha Déin Chécht .
