Abstract
The Boyne Valley was Ireland's ancient capital and its most sacred and mythical landscape. Over nearly six millennia, the story of Ireland has been written along the banks of the river Boyne. This presentation explores ancient tombs and royal sites, early Christian monasteries, a vast Anglo Norman Castle and a fierce battle that changed the course of European history.
“Sharing Ancient Irish Heritage with the Irish Diaspora in Greece” is a series of open public lectures on Irish archaeology, taking place throughout May 2026 under the overarching theme “Layers of Ireland” with the support of the Government of Ireland Emigrant Support Programme.
