Download or read book Lost and Found written by Joe Fenwick and published by Wordwell Limited. This book was released on 2003 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Archaeologists and historians find it easy to chat about their finds and experiences but rarely commit these to paper in such an informal way. The 31 essays that make up this book include personal insights and experiences from an array of people investigating, researching and just being interested in the history and archaeology of Ireland. The pitch of the essays is towards the general reader and thus the first chapter begins: My favourite discovery occurred just before Christmas 2000...'. Other titles include Two stones make a line' (Stefan Bergh), Do you think you will find the Ark of the Covenant before Indiana Jones?' (Mairead Carew), The elephant and the tunnel' (Conor Newman), and A day in the life of a medieval fisherman' (Aidan O'Sullivan) .

Download or read book The Archaeology of Celtic Art written by D.W. Harding and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2007-06-11 with total page 646 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: More wide ranging, both geographically and chronologically, than any previous study, this well-illustrated book offers a new definition of Celtic art. Tempering the much-adopted art-historical approach, D.W. Harding argues for a broader definition of Celtic art and views it within a much wider archaeological context. He re-asserts ancient Celtic identity after a decade of deconstruction in English-language archaeology. Harding argues that there were communities in Iron Age Europe that were identified historically as Celts, regarded themselves as Celtic, or who spoke Celtic languages, and that the art of these communities may reasonably be regarded as Celtic art. This study will be indispensable for those people wanting to take a fresh and innovative perspective on Celtic Art.

Volume I begins by looking at geography and the physical environment. Chapters follow that examine pre-3000, neolithic, bronze-age and iron-age Ireland and Ireland up to 800. Society, laws, church and politics are all analysed separately as are architecture, literature, manuscripts, language, coins and music.

A final chapter moves further on in time, examining Latin learning and literature in Ireland to 1500.
