When the Irish artist and antiquarian George Petrie (1790–1866) died, this two-volume collection of almost 300 Irish-language inscriptions was edited by the archaeologist Margaret Stokes (1832–1900) and published in 1872–8. Volume 1 is devoted to inscriptions connected with the important early medieval monastery at Clonmacnoise.
