Researchers from the Portalis transdisciplinary pilot project, working with six coastal communities, have been exploring the earliest connections between Ireland and Wales dating back to 10,000 years ago. It features an inclusive display of excavated Mesolithic artefacts.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:6,&quot;335551620&quot;:6,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">The transdisciplinary pilot research project Portalis (meaning \u2018Gateway\u2019), examined the natural and cultural heritage and related contemporary challenges of coastal communities in Ireland and Wales, going back to the Mesolithic Age. Project findings and stone tools from the Waterford Estuary area are included in this exhibition.\u00a0 Ceredigion Museum, Aberystwyth, hosts a sister display, with both museums and coastal destinations now linked by the project\u2019s new cross-border cultural network and the pilot Portalis Augmented Reality (AR) App.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:6,&quot;335551620&quot;:6,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:257}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Some of the stone tools collected by the late Citizen archaeologist Noel McDonagh, are exhibited here for the first time. McDonagh dedicated some fifty years of his life to investigating the Creadan area, surface collecting some 6,000 artefacts. In 2016 a licenced test archaeological excavation on Creadan Head by Prof. Peter Woodman, working with Noel and local volunteers, identified Creadan as the first definite Early Mesolithic site in Waterford.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:6,&quot;335551620&quot;:6,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:257}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">Entry to the Portalis permanent visitor experience at Waterford Treasures Museums is free, with no prior booking required. The Portalis transdisciplinary pilot project owes its origin to the late citizen archaeologist Noel McDonagh and the key experts McDonagh engaged with, notably Prof Peter Woodman, Prof Stanton Green and Dr. Joseph Schuldenrein. Alongside this, the project owes its origins also to the subsequent voluntary work of the Creaden Waterford Estuary Steering Group and the great support of its local coastal communities in Ireland and Wales.\u00a0<\/span><span data-contrast=\"none\">\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:6,&quot;335551620&quot;:6,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:257}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">In Ireland, Archaeologists, geoarchaeologists, climatologists, botanists, geologists from <\/span><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Geoarchaeology Research Associates<\/span><span data-contrast=\"auto\"> together with SETU designers interpreting this new data into an accessible display, attempted to reconstruct ancient environments and link them to Mesolithic and subsequent human landscapes.
