The earliest report of a monster in the vicinity of Loch Ness appears in the Life of St Columba written in the sixth century AD.
According to Adomnán, writing about a century after the events described, Irish monk Saint Columba was staying in the land of the Picts with his companions when he encountered local residents burying a man by the River Ness.
They explained that the man was swimming in the river when he was attacked by a “water beast” that mauled him and dragged him underwater despite their attempts to rescue him by boat.
Columba sent a follower, Luigne moccu Min, to swim across the river. The beast approached him, but Columba made the sign of the cross and said: “Go no further.
Do not touch the man. Go back at once. The creature stopped and fled, and Columba’s men and the Picts gave thanks for what they perceived as a miracle.
Pendant and ring is also available to make a lovely set.
