  • The Society's Watercolours of Limerick's Mitre and Crozier

    Open AccessPeter HarbisonARTICLEThe Antiquaries Journal2007References: 5

    The purpose of this paper is to present to the public for the first time the Society of Antiquaries’ original watercolours of Limerick's fifteenth-century mitre and crozier that served as the basis for engravings published in a paper by Dr Milner in the journal Archaeologia in 1814.

On the peninsula, pilgrima…

The existence of this defensive technique outside prehistoric forts in Britain or Ireland was first mentioned in 1684 when Roderick O'Flaherty described the Aran Island fort of Dun Aenghus in his Og…
