Description
This study is the first specifically to be written on medieval Irish grave slabs, and is also unprecedently comprehensive in gathering information on all such known slabs in County Tipperary. The slabs are often intricately decorated with Christian symbols as well as personal information, and an iconographical study can contribute to our understanding of medieval society and culture. The volume contains an introduction on the background of slab studies, and goes on to examine the archaeological and historical background of medieval Tipperary, to locate identifiable groups of slabs, to examine their iconography and inscriptions, and to describe their distribution and development. Also included is a catalogue of all 107 grave slabs from 22 sites.
