Why Didn't the Romans Invade Ireland?
Dr Jacqueline Cahill Wilson, a researcher in Late Iron Age and Roman Ireland, explores how Irish societies connected with the Roman world. She discusses archaeological Roman-style finds and isotope evidence for people from Roman Britain. She considers trade, resource extraction, unofficial networks, and why Rome never mounted a full conquest. Her work highlights complex, everyday interactions rather than formal occupation.
