Ballydehob (Irish: Béal átha an Dá Chab, meaning "mouth of the ford of the two river mouths") is a microcosm of Irish local history, and legends and folklore abound in the locality.
At the dawn of the Bronze Age (2220-600 BC) copper was mined on Mount Gabriel, just west of the village. About the same time stone circles, wedge and boulder tombs and rock art were constructed in the area. The Celts arrived some time later and in the early historic period various clans fought for dominance until the eventual emergence of the McCarthys and O"Mahonys as rulers of the region.
