cheers

i take it this would be good for a certain project for ucd students ?

nice one

Riamfada

when is that project due? have you gone on the trip already? were you attacked by theantigoods?

and a piece of advice, I would avoid EVERYTHING the internet says on Tara for academic work. Due to inaccuracies and general laziness of looking for stuff online. Hit the library. If you want better books PM me. Might have something knocking around but I dont know what the questions are.

ye , we already went

i learned that its just a hill

okay , cheers for the advice

Just a hill

newgrange , has a point

it is historicial

newgrange can live on in memory , cos there is definitely nothing to see when you go there

few hills , ditches
bit of art in a cave
church

nothing special

Conor- Check out the info here:

http://www.nuigalway.ie/archaeology/Tara_M3.html

It's up to date news articles about the current landscape of Tara as well as some GIS images and aerial photos.

You should have a look at Edel Bhreathnach's book and Conor Newman's Discovery Series Monograph. They're the most up to date. If you want to go back to the beginning have a look for Gearge Petrie's drawings of the site.

Good luck!

I would love to go there and look around. Does anybody know a B&B nearby or a rooming house?

i wouldnt be reading too much into that website

I get a kick out of people who are scared by ideas.

Particularly, I tried to communicate with JAH the webmaster, and was met with something less than a hospitable response.

Nonetheless, I still am curious about the history of Teah Tephi and the Lia Fail.

Enough to want to show up and look around.
