In the summer of 2006, a peat bog in County Tipperary, Ireland, yielded a rare medieval manuscript containing fragments of the Old Testament’s 150 psalms with illuminations and decorated letters. On Friday, June 13, at 6 pm, Irish scholar John Gillis tells of the discovery and difficult task of conserving the document, in “Treasures from the Bog: The Faddan More Psalter.” The lecture, hosted by the Press at the Palace of the Governors, is free in the History Museum auditorium.
