Fascinating discovery!

Great to see that students from one of our ENLIGHT partners, Uppsala University, had the opportunity to get involved in this excavation as part of an ENLIGHT+ funded project led by Dr Michelle Comber from the The School of Geography, Archaeology and Irish Studies.
Archaeologists have confirmed a ringfort overlooking Galway Bay as a settlement for rulers and nobles in Ireland’s Early Medieval period, a site with a remarkable ancient history that could date anywhere from the 5th to 12th century AD.
