Lough Kinale

Creator: The Discovery Programme

Lough Kinale formed one module of the Discovery Programme's Lake Settlement Project. The study examined the archaeology of Lough Kinale from the Mesolithic to the present. Lake archaeology is an under-studied aspect of Irish archaeology and this book is designed to contribute to a better understanding of that topic.
The online image collection comprises images taken from the volume C. Fredengren, A. Kilfeather and I. Stuijts, Lough Kinale: studies of an Irish lake (Dublin, 2010).
