Dear Litz: Slievenamon is Gaelic and it means Mountain of the Women.
This sensuously curved mountain, an inspiration to druids and poets, writers and songsters for millenia, is congruously and popularly named in Irish, Sliabh na mBan - the mountain of the women. Even if the historical sources were silent (and they are not), its rounded, nippled dome, its soft receding shoulders and flanks almost proclaim femininity and demand a dedication to woman.
