Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The objective Colonel William Gregory Wood-Martin held in view while presenting this work was to document the extraordinary discoveries made in a department of Archaeology previously almost unnoticed in Ireland, except in the Proceedings, Catalogues, and Journals of various learned communities. It contains accounts from the source, construction, and culture of the ancient Lacustrine habitations of Ireland, as illustrated by their remains and the antiquities found in or around them to the description and geographical distribution of all known Lacustrine locations in Ireland. Though Wood-Martin became a member of the Royal Irish Academy in 1883, and both published with and presented to that respective body, his association with the Royal Historical and Archaeological Association of Ireland dominated his antiquarian career.

Many of these ancient peoples lived in timber dwellings on crannogs, which were artificial islands in a lake. There is evidence that some were built on artificial mounds on land, also. The term crannog or crannoge is found among townland names today. Numerous artifacts have been found. In this work there are maps showing locations of known crannogs, and many illustrations of artifacts.

Download or read book Wetland Archaeology and Beyond written by Francesco Menotti and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2012-03-15 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite being one of the most successful branches of mainstream archaeology, wetland archaeology, as an academic discipline, is still relatively unknown. We might have all heard of the wonderfully preserved organic artefacts and ecofacts found in waterlogged conditions, but do we really know how they were preserved, found, retrieved, and conserved for us to admire and study? Wetland Archaeology and Beyond takes the reader through the fascinating biography of wetland archaeology, from the dawn of the discipline to its remarkable achievements. Through a discussion of a large variety of worldwide wetland archaeological sites and their material culture, Menotti offers an appreciative study of the people who occupied these sites and who created the archaeological artefacts. The volume also includes a comprehensive explanation of the procedures and research processes involved in archaeological practice and theory. Focusing on the relationship between archaeological experts and the general public, Menotti highlights the importance of this relationship for the future of the discipline as wetland ecosystems continue to disappear at an inexorable rate - and with them our invaluable cultural heritage.
