County Waterford is known locally as "The Decies" (An Déise). Sometime between the 4th and 8th centuries, a tribe of native Gaelic people called the Déisi were driven from the southern parts of the country, conquering and settling here. The ancient principality of the Déise is today roughly coterminous with the current Diocese of Waterford and Lismore.

The Deise region has two mountain ranges, rivers and lakes and over 30 beaches along a volcanic coast line. It is one of the few regions in Ireland with a Gaeltacht, an area with native Irish speaking people. The Deise has a rich history from megalithic tombs and ogham stones, to Vikings, to remnants of English occupancy, including the Gaulstown Dolmen, Reginalds Tower and The Ballysaggartmore Towers respectively.

The people that live in the Deise today are known to thrive on Irish traditions such as hurling and eating blaas (a type of floury bread roll, unique to the region).

"I think that the word DÈÌSE (dayshey) comes from early Irish (Gaelic)" in deis"= in servitude I also recall reading somewhere that the dèise were a tribe of the BELGAE ''firfolgs" just "ethnically cleansed " to presrnt dèise and an area in Co. Clare.

I think the meaning of the word has been lost, but it generally refers to a tribe that settled in the Waterford area long ago.

go to google and type the following:-

define: deise

answer is "Waterford is known as the Deise because of a tribe called the Deise. They were driven from Tara sometime between the 4th and 8th centuries AD. They conquered and settled in the area now known as Co. Waterford. Originally referred to as Deise Muman. "
