iubhar

iubhar
yew, Irish iubhar, Early Irish ibar, Gaulish <Eburos>; German eberesche, service-tree (*ebarisc). So Schräder. It does not seem that Irish eó, Welsh yw, Breton ivin, *ivo-, English yew, can be allied to iubhar. Hence iubrach, a yew wood, stately woman, the mythic boat of Fergus Mac Ro in the Deirdre story. Eboracum?
