4.9/5 (31259 ratings)

Description:Ireland is an island set in the north Atlantic, surrounded by seas that link it to a wider world. From earliest times, its peoples have lived besides its shorelines, bays and estuaries, navigating maritime seaways and gathering diverse resources. Since Ireland's first peoples arrived-Mesolithic hunter-gathers who came by boat about 10,000 years ago-the sea has been of enormous cultural, economic and ideological significance in this island's long story. In this book, two of Ireland's leading maritime archaeologists explore rich and intriguing evidence for its past maritime activities and traditions and how these changed through prehistory, the Middle Ages and up until the present day. Using archaeological discoveries, linked with historical and environmental evidence, they reveal the often overlooked cultural heritage of Ireland's coastal landscapes in their European and Atlantic contexts. This book will appeal to anyone interested in Ireland's cultural, environmental and maritime inheritance and to anyone who has walked along this island's shoreline and wondered about its peoples and their past.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
