Deer in medieval Ireland: preliminary evidence from Kilteasheen, Co. Roscommon
No full textAnimal bones are among the most common finds from excavations in
Ireland, and the majority of these are the remains of cattle, sheep and pig. While
bones from other species are also found they rarely receive much attention in
excavation reports where most of the discussion is focused on the economically
important species. Deer bones are usually only excavated in small numbers but are
common themes in medieval artwork, poetry and literature,1
and so can be said to
have a symbolic importance far beyond their economic value.
A red deer skull and six fragments of antler from at least three individual
deer were found during recent excavations at a high-status ecclesiastical site at
Kilteasheen, Knockvicar, Co. Roscommon, on the shores of Lough Cé, and were
analyzed by the author. These bones provided an opportunity to partially redress the
lack of attention paid to the minor species by synthesizing what is known about
deer and deer hunting in medieval Ireland, so hopefully providing archaeologists
and historians with useful background information. The paper briefly reviews the
biology of deer and the processes of deer hunting before discussing the material
from Kilteasheen and its significance.No (Pre-print - minor changes were made prior to full publication

The video tells the story of Kelly Finan, a 2009 graduate of Vanderbilt, who survived multiple complications of kidney disease, including strokes that required brain surgery, before receiving a transplant from Dan Romano under miraculous circumstances. Finan, Romano, Finan's parents, and others speak, and Finan is shown receiving her diploma at Vanderbilt's Commencement exercises in May 2009. Amy Wolf also tells how Finan, while still a student, led and helped finance a successful effort to make a playground at the Susan Gray School for Children, which is on the Peabody campus and serves children with developmental disabilities, fully accessible to children in wheelchairs
