The Magh is the term used in Bengal for the Arakanese or Rakhine people of Rakhine State Arakan . During the 16th and 17th centuries, the kingdom of Rakhine State Arakan expended its territories to the Chittagong area of Bengal . Arakanese navy of the kingdom of Arakan had plundered along the coast of Chattagong as well as in the rivers of Bengal and captured many Bengalis and sold them in the slave markets that were run by the Dutch East India Company , VOC in Batavia, Dutch East Indies Batavia . For those notorious activities in the past, the Arakanese were called as Magh pirates by the people of Bengal. Another alternative suggestion for the term Magh suggests that the word is derived from Maghada country where the Buddha lived. That country is mentioned in the Arakanese Chronicles as the original residing place of the ancestors of the Arakanese kings who were the relatives of the Buddha. During the hey days of the Arakanese kingdom, many Arakanese people who were called as Maghs lived in Chittagong region of Bengal. As Chittagong , what is now in Bengladesh, was part of Arakan in the past, the Arakanese Magh governors ruled part of Bengal by residing in that city as the capital of the colonial region of Arakan. Arakanese king also appointed Bohmong Rajas to rule in the Chittagong Hill Tracts CHT in Bohmong Htaung. The Chakma region of CHT and the kingdom of Tripura were also part of Arakan at that time. Those people living in CHT, especially in Bandarban were still ruled by Bohmong Raja until now since the Arakan s rule of Bengal. The Arakanse who have been living in CHT, Bengal, since the ascent of Arakanese kingdom in the 16th century were also known as the Marma people . Those Marmas are known as Magh to the people of Bengal as they are the Arakanese descendants. Arakanese people living in Tripura state of India since that ancient time, are also called as Mog or Magh by the local people of Tripura State. References Oxford English Dictionary s.v.

Magh Luirg or Magh Luirg an Dagda , Anglicised as Moylurg , was the name of a kingdom located in the north east of Connacht , the western province of Ireland , from c.956 1585. The Kings of Moylurg were a branch of the S l Muiredaig, who were themselves of the U Bri in Ai who descended from The Connachta . Moylurg is, in Irish, Magh Luirg an Dagda , the plain of the tracks of the Dagda. The Dagda was an ancient Irish deity. The kingdom s first king, Maelruanaidh Mor mac Tadg , was a son of Tadg mac Cathal Kings of Connacht King of Connacht 925 956 and brother to Conchobar mac Tadg , who succeeded as king in 967. Maelruanaidh is said to have made a deal of some nature where, in return for abandoing any claim to the provincial kingship, he would be given Moylurg. His dynasty were known as the Clan Mulrooney later known as Clan MacDermot , cousins to O Connor, who was then High King of Ireland. This royal connection was exploited to oust the existing cheiftans of Moylurg, the MacReevys Irish Mac Riabhaigh, later anglicized spelling McGreevy . There are very few clues as to the exact point in time when the MacRiabhaighs MacReevys McGreevys were dispossessed of their ancestral lands by the McDermots or to a controversy which precipitated the action. Modern sources are not much help. Clearly the dispossession occurred earlier then was speculated by Sir Cecil King Harmon in 1958 c. 1400 or the Roscommon Herald in 1959 c. 1300 . The statement on the McGreevy Stone in Ardcarne Cemetery erected in the 20th century, c. 1930 that the MacRiabhaighs MacReevys McGreevys were kings of Moylurgh . . . until 1255 may be the most reliable, and also is consistent with the statement by the Irish genealogical authority Edward MacLysaght More Irish Families that the McGreevys were lords of Moylurg . . . until the 13th century, when they were subdued by, and become tributary to the McDermots ...
