Hi, Aw, shucks; these Viking guys were only the overspill from the nearby County Meath! Sure, the Meath boys always were generous to smaller folks! (Well, Gaelic football excepted!). I mean. some things you just can't give away!
Hey, I've got a great idea! Let's tear up the land then build a municipal building on it.
jacers! Brilliant! - me life on yeh!
great find.establishes further the link between vikings and celts.
The astounding thing about this discovery is that there are no minerals found. The Russians dug 500 feet under their soil, found copper wires and claimed that their ancient ancestors had the telephone before anyone else. Firing back, and not to be outdone, America dug 1000 feet deep, found silica and claimed their older ancestors already had advanced high tech digital telephones. The Irish dug 1500 deep, found nothing and concluded their ancestors were already using wireless technology.
Brilliant news for the my wee county. Keep us updated. I hope this gives a boost to tourisim in the area.
Bring on those Scandinavian tourists!
This is great news. Hopefully we'll hear more of it. After having visited Ireland so many times, I imagine that there are so many more sites to be found there. Just from what I've seen driving around all of Ireland....this report doesn't surprise me at all.....it's such a wonderful, historic land!!!
This is an amazing discovery. I can't wait to hear more details.
excellent, let's hope there are lots of exciting finds just waiting to be discovered.
Wow, what an event for this little village. My cousins live near there and have taken me to the pub there for dinner when I visit Ireland. I do hope this gives the area a boost in the economy. I hope I can visit the digs when I go back next year.
Brilliant news and a great boost for Ireland in an era of uncertainty.
Awesome -Keep up on reporting of findings at site!
Wonderful news - keep us updated, please.
Brilliant find!
