Carna or Càrna is an island in Loch Sunart, an arm of the sea, close to the Ardnamurchan peninsula, on the west coast of Scotland. Geography Carna lies wedged across the mouth of Loch Teacuis in the middle of Loch Sunart, forming two narrow kyles which provide some of the trickiest rock-dodging for yachtsmen anywhere on the west coast.

Cardea
Cardea or Carda was the ancient Roman goddess of the hinge (Latin ''cardo, cardinis''), Roman doors being hung on pivot hinges. The Augustan poet Ovid conflates her with another archaic goddess named Carna, whose festival was celebrated on the Kalends of June and for whom he gives the alternative name Cranê or Cranea, a nymph. Ovid's conflation of the goddesses is likely to have been his poetic invention, but it has also been conjectured that ''Carna'' was a contracted form of ''Cardina'', and at minimum Ovid was observing that their traditions were congruent. Cardea and doorways In the Christian polemic of the Church Fathers, Cardea is associated with two otherwise unknown deities who preside over doorways: Forculus, from ''fores'', "door", plural in form because double doors were common on public buildings and elite homes ('' domūs''); and Limentinus, from ''limen, liminis'', "threshold" (compare English " liminal"). St. Augustine mocks the apparent triviality of these "li ...
