From Murder to Miscarriage- the tales our bodies tell from beyond the grave. Discovering the lives of our ancestors through the scientific study of skeletons, and burial sites. Fascinating talk by Caoimhe Ní Thóibín
From Murder to Miscarriage- the tales our bodies tell from beyond the grave. This talk will introduce the audience to the subject of osteoarchaeology, itself a sub-discipline of archaeology. Human remains are often recovered unexpectedly in both rural and urban settings. Careful analysis of the bone can provide fascinating information regarding the individual’s lifestyle and that of the wider community. Identifying the diseases, traumas, diet and life expectancy of past populations provides a richer understanding of the real lives our ancestors lived.

Tall tales regaled at Treaty City by master storyteller extraordinaire Eddie Lenihan
Eddie doesn’t just tell stories, he believes in them, and his stories of “the other crowd” are not for the fainthearted and not to be missed!
All of us at #swimablelimerick were delighted to be a part of such a wonderful festival that showcased a part of our city that is so frequently underused. Samhain Limerick showed us how to make the best of medieval Limerick, our cities hidden gem.
