For the first time, this comprehensive study documents the archaeological richness of the Iveragh Peninsula from the Stone Age to the end of the medieval period. The survey covers a broad range of archaeological field monuments, over 1,500 sites in all. The vast majority are previously unpublished and are described and categorised in separate chapters. Each chapter features a general introduction to the type of monument and each is accompanied by drawings, plans, profiles, black-and-white photographs and colour plates. This study is the result of an important initiative by FAS and the South West Kerry Development Organisation in which over one hundred local young people participated during its eight-year duration. It provides new and exciting information for the specialist and will prove invaluable to anyone wishing to explore the human legacy of the wild and rugged landscape of south Kerry.
