Multi-Channel Ground-Penetrating Radar Array Surveys of the Iron Age and Medieval Ringfort Bårby on the Island of Öland, Sweden
remote sensing Article Multi-Channel Ground-Penetrating Radar Array Surveys of the Iron Age and Medieval Ringfort Bårby on the Island of Öland, Sweden Andreas Viberg 1,* , Christer Gustafsson 2 and Anders Andrén 3 1 Archaeological Research Laboratory, Department of Archaeology and Classical Studies, Stockholm University, SE-106 91 Stockholm, Sweden 2 ImpulseRadar AB, Storgatan 78, SE–939 32 Malå, Sweden; [email protected] 3 Department of Archaeology and Classical Studies, Stockholm University, SE-106 91 Stockholm, Sweden; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 20 December 2019; Accepted: 4 January 2020; Published: 9 January 2020 Abstract: As a part of the project “The Big Five”, large-scale multi-channel ground-penetrating radar surveys were carried out at Bårby ringfort (Swedish: borg), Öland, Sweden. The surveys were carried out using a MALÅ Imaging Radar Array (MIRA) system and aimed at mapping possible buried Iron Age and Medieval remains through the interior in order to better understand the purpose of the fort during its periods of use. An additional goal was to evaluate the impact of earlier farming on the preservation of the archaeological remains. The data provided clear evidence of well-preserved Iron Age and Medieval buildings inside the fort. The size and the pattern of the Iron Age houses suggest close similarities with, for example, the previously excavated fort at Eketorp on Öland. Given the presence of a substantial cultural layer together with a large number of artefacts recovered during a metal detection survey, it is suggested that Bårby borg’s primary function during the Iron Age was as a fortiﬁed village.

5. Excavation of a Ringfort at Leggetsrath West, County Kilkenny Anne-Marie Lennon
5. Excavation of a ringfort at Leggetsrath West, County Kilkenny Anne-Marie Lennon Illus. 1—Location of the Leggetsrath West ringfort, Co. Kilkenny (based on Ordnance Survey Ireland map) The ringfort at Leggetsrath West was situated to the east of Kilkenny city, on the proposed route of the N77 Kilkenny Ring Road Extension (Illus. 1). The site was identified in a preliminary archaeological assessment of the road corridor as an area of potential archaeological interest. It was the only high point, a naturally occurring hillock, along the route of the proposed road. The site was in an area of rough grazing, which was bound to the east by the Fennell stream and to the west by Hebron Industrial Estate. Archaeological Consultancy Services Ltd carried out investigations in 2004 when the gravel hillock was topsoil stripped, revealing a bivallate (double ditch) ringfort dating from the early historic period (NGR 252383, 155983; height 58.47 m OD; excavation licence no. 04E0661). The ringfort was delimited by two concentric ditches set 4 m apart, with an overall diameter of 54 m. Archaeological excavations were funded by the National Roads Authority through Kilkenny County Council. Historical and archaeological background The early historic period in Ireland is dominated by the introduction of Christianity in the fifth century AD. Apart from church sites, the settlement evidence of the period is 43 Settlement, Industry and Ritual Illus. 2—Plan of excavated features at Leggetsrath West (Archaeological Consultancy Services Ltd) 44 A ringfort at Leggetsrath West, County Kilkenny dominated by two categories of monument: the ringfort and the crannóg.

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.

Finding Irish Parish Records Using Fianna Information by Joe Petrie
Finding Irish Parish Records using Fianna Information By Joe Petrie My Patrick Tobin family (Patrick, Judith Keefe, and their 3 sons) relocated to Northern Bay, Newfoundland from Gowran, Kilkenny, Ireland in very early in the 1800s. One of Patrick and Judith’s grandsons, Richard Tobin (my great grandfather) married Honorah Catherine (Nora) Dooley of North Sydney in November 1869 in St. Joseph’s. Richard and Nora initially settled in Channel, Newfoundland where they had their first 2 children (of 8): WIlliam Richard (my grandfather) and Mary Elizabeth (who was Sister Loretta of the Sisters of Charity of Halifax). The other 6 children were born in North Sydney. Many years ago, I decided to find and research Kilkenney RC Parish records at the local Mormon Church Family History Center’s Library (FHL) – principally to see whether I could find any other related Tobin family lines. (I kept hearing oral histories that indicated that five Tobin brothers relocated to Newfoundland and Canada at the same time.) The task was easier said than done. Why? First, because Gowran Parish Registers started after my Tobin family moved to Newfoundland, they were not in the Parish Registers. Second, Tobin was fairly common surname in Kilkenney. For example, the Tithe Applotment books list 170 records for Tobin. In fact, James Tobin was the only Gowran name – but there’s no proof that James and my ancestor Patrick were related. Using the Fianna Information, the same task would be easier and probably accomplished in a few hours. To help users, the Fianna information is available by County.
