Stolen From Ireland: The Irish Artefacts in British Museums

Season 1 Episode 221 Published 2 months, 2 weeks ago
Description

There are thousands of Irish artefacts sitting inside the British Museum. 
 
Some are on display… But many more are locked away in archives — rarely, if ever, seen. 
 
From ancient art… and religious relics… to objects tied to deeply local Irish stories. 
 
They’ve been in London for decades — in some cases, centuries. 
 
But now, the question is getting louder again… Should we be asking for them back? 

Ciara is joined by Professor Laura McAtackney from the School of the Human Environment at UCC
