Description
Abstract (cited)
In the early 1960s A.T. Lucas published a seminal paper on the food products eaten in Ireland since earliest times down to the late seventeenth century. There is at this juncture a pressing need to harness and collate the additional knowledge now available with a view to developing a more fully informed and consolidated perspective on this subject. Using both documentary and archaeological evidence, two questions are discussed here: what food products were commonly consumed in Ireland down the centuries, and what was the overall nutritional status of the diets consumed by the general population since earlier times? The present article aims to provide a baseline perspective for the assimilation of the range of new knowledge generated in recent decades.
