- Anglo-Normans: in 1169 Ireland was invaded by Norman-French knights from England (which had been conquered by the Normans under William the Conqueror in 1066) → the Anglo-Normans were eventually assimilated, becoming "more Irish than the Irish themselves"
- Arklow: a town on the coast of County Wicklow with a lighthouse
- Nore: a river in Ireland → Strongbow (Richard de Clare the Earl of Pembroke), the leader of the Anglo-Norman invaders, had a castle on the Nore, as Stephen Dedalus recalls in the Proteus episode of Ulysses
