Primary sources Text editions and/or modern translations – in whole or in part – along with publications containing additions and corrections, if known. Diplomatic editions, facsimiles and digital image reproductions of the manuscripts are not always listed here but may be found in entries for the relevant manuscripts. For historical purposes, early editions, transcriptions and translations are not excluded, even if their reliability does not meet modern standards.

[ed.] Hamel, A. G. van [ed.], “A poem on Crimthann”, Revue Celtique 37 (1917–1919): 335–344.  

Supersedes the earlier article published in Revue Celtique 36. Van Hamel writes in a footnote: “Owing to the difficulties of communication, which prevailed in Europe at this time, the text was printed without revision of the proofs”.
