Description
The Road to Kells: Prehistoric Archaeology of the M3 Navan to Kells and N52 Kells Bypass Road Project by Fintan Walsh. This comprehensive guide explores the rich prehistoric heritage of Ireland, tracing the lives of hunter-gatherers, Neolithic communities, Bronze Age farmers, and Iron Age workers. From Mesolithic campsites to early medieval settlements, the book delves into the history of the region, revealing the evolution of human settlement and cultural practices over 5,000 years. The story unfolds chapter by chapter, taking us from the primeval landscape of Cakestown Glebe to the threshold of history in the Iron Age/early medieval transition period. Along the way, we encounter the growth of a central place in Kells, which would eventually become a famous monastery site.
