The presentation ‘Poulnabrone, a tomb for the ancestors’ includes an account of the excavations carried out at this iconic site in the late 1980s. The excavation revealed well-preserved human remains and the artefacts deposited with them which have provided insights into the builders of these little-understood monuments. A comprehensive dating programme has been carried out which places Poulnabrone at the very beginning of megalith building in Ireland. The results of recent research into ancient DNA will also be presented.
Dr. Ann Lynch, a graduate of University College Cork and the Universiteit van Amsterdam, worked as an archaeologist with the National Monuments Service for almost 40 years. Her duties included working with architectural colleagues on the conservation of the monuments in state ownership and this resulted in her directing excavations at many of Ireland’s premier monuments including Dublin Castle, Newgrange, Skellig Michael, Tintern Abbey and of course, Poulnabrone portal tomb.
