An Irish or Scottish fort or circular stone-walled settlement, especially one from medieval times.
From Irish/Scottish Gaelic 'cathair,' meaning 'fortress' or 'seat.' Cashel refers to ancient defensive structures, most famously the Rock of Cashel in County Tipperary, Ireland.
Cashel isn't about money at all—it's one of archaeology's greatest naming coincidences that it sounds like 'cash.' The Rock of Cashel was reportedly where Saint Patrick lit Ireland's first Easter fire in 432 AD.
