Archaeology Ireland articles relating to road schemes

In 1987 a small team of people with an interest in the general field of archaeology published the first issue of Archaeology Ireland magazine. It has been published every quarter since then. Archaeology Ireland covers many fascinating topics spanning all the sub-disciplines of archaeology, including science, art, architecture, history, geography, economics, sociology, anthropology, technology, religion and more. Archaeology Ireland keeps the reader in touch with the latest news, reviews and debates that are influencing archaeology and history in Ireland, Britain and the rest of the world.

The NRA would like to thank Archaeology Ireland for allowing PDFs of articles relating to road projects to be displayed here.
