GLE-1: < 'Baile an Chacamair'
The current spelling of Ballyhackamore appears on one of Raven’s maps c.1625, but the townland seems to have been referred to in the Earldom of Ulster as early as 1333, as Kakebertoun. The distinctive element appears to be a derivative of Irish cac ‘excrement’, akin to cacamas meaning ‘refuse, dross’, and refer to soft mud or slob land.
