Dendrochronological sampling of medieval fishweirs on the Fergus Estuary, Co. Clare, Ireland
(2011)
Daly, Aoife; Sands, Rob
Abstract:
At the spring tides, during the summer of 2011, a team from the School of Archaeology, University College Dublin, made several research trips to a complex of medieval fishweirs at a location close to Boarland Rock on the Fergus estuary, Co. Clare, Ireland. The purpose of these visits was to obtain samples for part of a Marie Curie funded IEF fellowship. In this phase of the project two case studies from the fishweir complex are underway using dendrochronological techniques to refine approaches to understanding their construction and use history along the River Fergus.

Duffy, Medieval Dublin X (Holm)
(2011)
HOLM, POUL
Abstract:
Ten years, ten volumes. Medieval Dublin arrives like clockwork. The series has brought to light an exact number of 100 papers on the city and its hinterland. Contributions have been almost equally drawn from archaeology and history, including art history and literature. In all we now have more than 3,000 pages of academic research into the history of medieval Dublin. It is an impressive accumulation of scholarship in such a short time and no other city in Ireland and indeed few in Europe can count themselves so lucky. Medieval urban history is being well served by its Friends of Medieval Dublin, an academic community of diverse and committed talent. This year’s publication, volume X , is a high mark of the series. It opens with a moving tribute to Simon Dick, archaeologist and Friend of Medieval Dublin who left a legacy of investigations that will inform our understanding of the city in the future. The volume ends with a hitherto unpublished survey of the medieval Irish town by the ...

Metrology and Proportion in the Ecclesiastical Architecture of Medieval Ireland

Metrology and Proportion in the Ecclesiastical Architecture of Medieval Ireland
(2008)
Behan, Avril; Moss, Rachel
Abstract:
<p>The aim of this paper is to examine the extent to which detailed empirical analysis of the metrology and proportional systems used in the design of Irish ecclesiastical architecture can be analysed to provide historical information not otherwise available. Focussing on a relatively limited sample of window tracery designs as a case study, it will first set out to establish what, if any, systems were in use, and then what light these might shed on the background, training and work practices of the masons, and, by association, the patrons responsible for employing them.</p>

The Sword in the Stone: previously unrecognised archaeological evidence of ceremonies of the later Iron Age and early medieval period
(2009)
Newman, Conor
Abstract:
Published in G. Cooney et al. (eds), Relics of Old Decency: archaeological studies in later prehistory. Festschrift for Barry Raftery (Wordwell, Dublin, 2009), 425-36, this is a proof copy of an introduction to on-going research on a series of narrow grooves cut into a range of stone artefacts and monuments. These grooves are found, for example, on the decorated Mullaghmast Stone (now in the National Museum of Ireland), on the market cross at Kells, Co. Meath, and on several ogham stones. It is suggested that such grooves reflect a ritual in which a sword blade was drawn across a special stone to imbue the weapon with some of the stone's magical potency. This may be the explanation for the famous Arthurian motif of 'the sword in the stone' where the young Arthur has his royal destiny confirmed when he draws the sword of kingship from a stone.
