O '''ogham''' é un alfabeto empregado para escribir a [[lingua paleoirlandesa]] (nas chamadas inscricións "ortodoxas", entre o século IV e VI), e posteriormente a [[lingua irlandesa antiga]] (no chamado ogham escolástico, entre os século VI e IX). Consérvanse preto de 400 inscricións ortodoxas en monumentos de pedra a través de Irlanda e o oeste de Bretaña; a maioría delas no sur de [[Munster]].<ref>McManus (1991) is aware of a total of 382 orthodox inscriptions. The later scholastic inscriptions have no definite endpoint and continue into the Middle Irish and even Modern Irish period, and record also names in other languages, such as Old Norse, (Old) Welsh, Latin and possibly Pictish.
