| Abstract: | Excavations in the 1960s and 1970s in this key area of medieval Dublin ceased through lack of funds, and attempts to restrain the Corporation, by legal means, from redeveloping the site have failed. The whole affair has pointed up the lack of a plan for urban archaeology in the Republic, a situation which the Irish Association of Professional Archaeologists is trying to remedy. Wood Quay is not just a matter of some Viking buildings and finds; it has already caused a complete reassessment of the Viking (and Norman) contribution to Ireland's urban life and historical development. Many illustrations of structures and finds from Viking Dublin may be found in Viking settlement to medieval Dublin, Curriculum Development Unit, Dublin, O'Brien Educational, 1978, price £4.50. | ||||
