Logboats and craft dating from 2,500 BC to the 11th century on Galway’s Corrib is the theme of a lecture by State archaeologist Karl Brady to the Dublin Bay Old Gaffers' Association later this month.
Brady is a senior archaeologist with the State’s Underwater Archaeology Unit and has worked on many discoveries in Irish inland and coastal waters over some years, including cannon recovered from Spanish Armada wrecks.
Viking axes and Bronze Age spearheads are among the items found, along with vessel remains, after a hydrographic survey of Lough Corrib in which he was involved.
The talk in aid of the RNLI will take place at the Poolbeg Yacht and Boat Club on April 18th at 8 p.m., and all are welcome.
