Glendalough: Artefacts and Early Christianity

A video exploring the impact of the arrival of Christianity on Ireland, as reflected in the objects, art- work, burial practices, writing and building and monuments of the time. It also follows history of the famous monastic valley of Glendalough, and explores the external influences on Glendalough, the impact of the changes throughout Ireland on the site with the arrival of Christianity, Vikings, and regional power struggles and the connections between the site and the wider hinterland, England, Scandinavia and Europe. It was created for history teachers and students to use when learning about what archaeology can tell us about the impact of the arrival of Christianity on culture in Ireland. The video is part of a set of resources inspired by the archaeology and objects that come from the valley of Glendalough, Co. Wicklow and that are on display in a new exhibition Glendalough: Power, Prayer and Pilgrimage at NMI – Archaeology. A significant amount of footage was shot in the exhibition, but the videos also show views of other exhibitions, including the iconic Ardagh Chalice, and footage of behind the scenes views of the Museum laboratories, archives, and stores. The video explores what key objects can tell us about cultural and social developments in early Christian Ireland. Objects such as Ogham stones, ‘the Ardagh Chalice’, and relics, as well as pottery, clothing and monuments in the landscape, are discussed by museum staff to see what we can tell about the impact of Christianity on beliefs and daily life.
