Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
In summing up the 1969 Cardiff conference (see also 72/1636 and other abstracts there indicated), it was noted that papers had tended, being quite properly preoccupied with detail, to deny the existence of a unitary Irish Sea culture-province. However, when compared with its surrounding areas, the province appears both geographically and culturally distinctive; even the lack of pottery and the apparent material impoverishment sets much of Wales and Ireland apart from neighbouring areas. The shortage of datable finds (which may result from a combination of climatic and economic reasons) is partly responsible for difficulties in constructing agreed chronologies; for instance, Irish workers postulate a late (2nd century BC) start to the Iron Age in Ireland. The "missing five centuries" may, however, begin to fill as research intensifies. | |||||||||
