• Monasticon Hibernicum project

  Inspired by the monumental Monasticon Hibernicum of eighteenth-century antiquarian and clergyman Mervyn Archdall, the project [by Ailbhe MacShamhráin with Nora White and Aidan Breen] is more than a revised version of Archdalls opus. While Archdalls encyclopedia of pre-Reformation monasteries and abbies covered some five-hundred and fifty sites in eight-hundred pages, this database of pre-twelfth century ecclesiastical settlement is much wider in scope, recording ten times the number of sites.
