"The graveyard."

Translation: An reilig.

[tjpalmer]

Maybe more likely related to "relic" than "religion"? Or is it neither?

[galaxyrocker]

MacBain's Scottish etymological dictionary has it coming from Latin reliquiae

[scilling]

Yes — eDIL notes that reilic, the older spelling of reilig, comes from Latin reliquiae, just as English “relic” does.
