Archaeologists discuss Hill of Tara

The Hill of Tara will be debated by leaders in the world of archaeology at an international conference next month.

A round table session in Dublin about the ethics of the construction of the controversial M3 motorway will form part of the Sixth World Archaeological Congress (WAC-6). The non-governmental group - which is the only archaeological organisation with elected global representation - holds an international convention every four years to promote the exchange of archaeological research, professional training, and the conservation of archaeological sites.

The M3 Motorway/Hill of Tara will be one of two themes debated by the WAC Ethics Forum during the event at University College Dublin from June 29 to July 4.
