This database contains summary accounts of all the excavations carried out in Ireland – North and South – from 1985 to 1999. It has been compiled from the published Excavations Bulletins from those years, with a similar format. The Excavations Bulletin was started by Tom Delaney in the early 1970s, and was revived by Claire Cotter in 1985. Since 1986 it has been compiled by Isabel Bennett and published by Wordwell, with support from the Office of Public Works, latterly Dúchas The Heritage Service, Department of Arts, Heritage, Gaeltacht and the Islands. The number of excavations carried out annually in Ireland has increased steadily during this period. To illustrate, Excavations 1985 has 40 reports, while Excavations 1999 contains over 900. The database gives access to over 4000 reports, and can be browsed or searched using multiple fields, including Year, County, Site Type, Grid Reference, Licence No., Sites and Monuments Record No. and Author.
