Bronze and Iron Age travelling exhibition opens tomorrow in the Ballyhoura Hills

A travelling exhibition which focuses on Bronze and Iron Age settlements in the Ballyhoura Hills, which straddle the Cork/Limerick border, will open tomorrow.

The exhibition, which outlines archaeological research in Ballyhoura, will open at Kilmallock Library, Co Limerick and will later move to Doneraile, Co Cork and Kilfinane, Co Limerick.

It will focus primarily on Bronze Age farmers, Iron Age frontiers, and medieval friars, reflecting research projects carried out in the area by the Discovery Programme’s Centre for Archaeology and Innovation.
