Caemhog [1]
is commemorated among the Irish on July 22. The sex of this saint is uncertain, either from the female termination given to the name, or from other circumstances. Kevoca, a saint of the male sex, is called Caemhog. Both Colgan and Lanigan regarded this person as female, and are in confusion as to identity; the one making her the same as Caviltighern, and the other taking her to be Coemaca. See Colgan, Acta Sanctorum, p. 586; Lanigan, Eccles. Hist. Ir. ii, 45, 223.
