Crannogs — These Small Man-Made Islands
PART I — INTRODUCTION 1. INTRODUCTION Islands attract attention.They sharpen people’s perceptions and create a tension in the landscape. Islands as symbols often create wish-images in the mind, sometimes drawing on the regenerative symbolism of water. This book is not about natural islands, nor is it really about crannogs — these small man-made islands. It is about the people who have used and lived on these crannogs over time.The tradition of island-building seems to have fairly deep roots, perhaps even going back to the Mesolithic, but the traces are not unambiguous.While crannogs in most cases have been understood in utilitarian terms as defended settlements and workshops for the wealthier parts of society, or as fishing platforms, this is not the whole story.I am interested in learning more about them than this.There are many other ways to defend property than to build islands, and there are many easier ways to fish. In this book I would like to explore why island-building made sense to people at different times. I also want to consider how the use of islands affects the way people perceive themselves and their landscape, in line with much contemporary interpretative archaeology,and how people have drawn on the landscape to create and maintain long-term social institutions as well as to bring about change. The book covers a long time-period, from the Mesolithic to the present. However, the geographical scope is narrow. It focuses on the region around Lough Gara in the north-west of Ireland and is built on substantial fieldwork in this area. -

Westmeath Field Names Recording Project

Westmeath Archaeological and Historical Society took the initatve and invited Dr Aengus Finnegan to give a lecture enttled ‘Collectng and revitalizing minor placenames and feld names in Co. Westmeath’ in Mullingar on March 8th, 2018, to highlight the potental for such a scheme in the county. With the support of the County Heritage Ofcer, Melanie McQuade, a steering group was subsequently formed, and a pilot project to record feld names in County Westmeath commenced in May 2018. The project is funded by the Heritage Council and Westmeath County Council. The Project Co-ordinator is Dr Aengus Finnegan (University of Limerick), assisted by Justn Ó Gliasáin (Dublin City University). Why collect feld names? The names of felds are a valuable part of our local heritage, but, in many cases, they are only known to a handful of people, and have never been recorded. These names are being lost as farming changes, with less and less people working the land on a daily basis. Field names can tell us much about our local area - how people appreciated the physical landscape, its hills and hollows, streams, and bogs; but also, its history and traditons of human setlement, from holy wells, to ringforts, bailte or house-clusters, burial grounds and landed-estate features.
