<abstract>This paper presents a Linked Data approach to digitising and structuring Old Irish linguistic resources using the Lila (Linking Latin) ontology, which is itself largely based on the OntoLex-Lemon framework (Cimiano et al., 2016). Old Irish, as an ancient Celtic language with fragmented textual traditions, presents unique challenges for the creation and interoperability of digital resources. This work is part of the MOLOR project, whose aim is to create a knowledge base for Old Irish by interlinking texts, lexicons, and inflectional data. The first step in this ambitious endeavour is described here: the creation of an RDF linguistic Linked Data hub known as a Lemma Bank, similar to the one created as part of the LiLa project, addressing specific linguistic challenges and opportunities while adhering to the LiLa ontology.</abstract>
