Description: <abstract>This dataset has been designed to visually represent the distribution of archaeological artefact finds, based on the Irish Antiquities Division’s Collections Database, at local and national coverage where possible. Find locations shown on the Heritage Map Viewer are not an accurate representation of the actual find spot. In some cases the location symbol may only represent the townland within which the find was located. This resource only provides basic information in relation to archaeological objects found in Ireland. This is static information to the extent available at the time that the record was created and is not subject to updating as new discoveries come to light. It does not provide precise details of context and topographical locations to the level of detail that is required by archaeological researchers and project archaeologists. The National Museum of Ireland archive is available for consultation by appointment with the Duty Officer, Irish Antiquities Division at the National Museum of Ireland, Kildare Street, Dublin (antiquitiesdo@museum.ie and at 01:6777444).</abstract>

Description: This resource provides location and information links for excavation sites, find spots and features of archaeological importance, assembled as part of the Kilkenny Archaeological Project. The Kilkenny Archaeological Project GIS presents licensed archaeological activity reports for the Kilkenny borough area (Kilkenny city and its environs) between 1968-2006, archaeological object find-spots and Urban Archaeological Survey sites. Each of these datasets is provided for reference purposes only. Reports submitted to the National Monuments Service in compliance with licence conditions are the property of the Minister for Culture, Heritage and the Gaeltacht and are provided here courtesy of the National Monuments Service and the individual authors. Accuracy is dependent upon the quality of the information within each report and should be independently verified by the end-user. Only reports available at the time of mapping are included. The intention is to update the dataset periodically in the future. The scan quality of the reports also varies somewhat. The archaeological object find-spots and accompanying data are derived from the Topographical Files of the National Museum of Ireland, the Kilkenny Archaeological Society Museum at Rothe House accession register, historical newspaper entries and various publications. The Topographical Files are the property of the National Museum of Ireland. This information is provided to enable users visualise heritage data and should only be used for plotting heritage activity and reference purposes. For find spots and investigation locations there is an accuracy range depending on the information provided within each file. Further details and a comprehensive report on the Kilkenny Archaeological Project are available at www.kkap.ie
