AKA and see "When the Wind Blows," "Basket of Eggs," "Green Goose Fair (1)," "The Onehorned Cow [2]," "O'Sullivan Mor(e's March) [1]," "Our Own Little Isle," "Painseach," "Painneach na nUbh (1)," "Pretender's March," "Retreat (The)," "A Rock and the/a Wee Pickle Tow," "Scotch March (1)." Irish, Jig. G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. The Caravat was a secretive, gang-like organization that grew out of agrarian unrest which eventually degenerated into faction fighting. The earliest appearance of the tune in print is in Church of Ireland cleric James Goodman's mid-19th century manuscripts. Goodman (1828-1896) was an uilleann piper, and an Irish speaker who collected locally in County Cork and elsewhere in Munster, although he also gleaned melodies from printed sources and collections. See note for "Shanavest and Caravat (1)" for more detailed explanation of factions.
