SUMMER REPEAT - Sitric Silkenbeard, King of Dublin, with Prof Alex Woolf
Manage episode 434518962 series 3590076
In case you missed it! Inspired by the summer sun and tourist queues at Christchurch Cathedral, Dublinia, the Viking Splash Tour and the National Museum of Ireland (Kildare Street) etc, we bring you a REPEAT of our episode from May 24th dedicated to the man (partly) responsible for it all.
In this episode, Dr Niamh Wycherley interviews Prof Alex Woolf (University of St. Andrews) on Sitric Silkenbeard, arguably one of the best Dubliners of all time. How did he end up being the king of Dublin? What was he doing during the Battle of Clontarf? What happened to him afterwards? These questions are at the core of this week's episode of The Medieval Irish History podcast.
Regular episodes every two weeks (on a Friday).
