In 1169 AD, Norman invaders arrived in County Wexford, Ireland. Now, a rare
and complete, 800-year-old Norman “hauberk” (chainmail vest) has been
discovered in County Longford thought to date to when the Normans arrived
there in 1172.
The “hauberk” was a coat of upper body armor that was often referred to as
a “byrnie.” Made of chain mail, the wearable metal material was much more
flexible and lightweight compared with the stiffer and heavier plate armor.
It was an almost perfectly preserved hauberk that was recently discovered in
a shed at an undisclosed location in Ireland. According to a report in RTE
the ancient armor is currently being held by local tourist attraction, “
Granard Knights & Conquests ,” prior to being exhibited to the public at the
National Museum of Ireland.
公元 1169 年，诺曼入侵者抵达爱尔兰韦克斯福德郡。现在，在朗福德郡发现了一件罕见
且完整的、已有 800 年历史的诺曼“锁子甲”（链甲背心），其历史可以追溯到 1172
年诺曼人到达那里时。
“hauberk”是一件上身盔甲，通常被称为“byrnie”。与更硬更重的板甲相比，这种由
锁子甲制成的可穿戴金属材料更加灵活和轻便。
这是一个几乎保存完好的锁甲，最近在爱尔兰一个未公开地点的棚屋中被发现。根据RTE
的报导，这件古代盔甲目前由当地旅游景点“ Granard Knights & Conquests ”保存，
然后在爱尔兰国家博物馆向公众展出。

A Real Ancient Treasure For Heritage Week
The piece of rare, and almost complete, ancient Norman armor, that is soaked
with the history of 800 years, was recently found rusting in a garden shed.
The discoverer only realized what he had in his shed after attending a ‘
Norman People’ event at Granard Knights & Conquests, as part of National
Heritage Week. When the finder went home and recognized the item in his shed
was virtually the same as those worn by the actors earlier they came forward
and informed Irish antiquary authorities.
Tourism and Education Officer for Granard Knights & Conquests, Deirdre Orme,
told RTE that the hauberk is an “absolutely amazing discovery.”
Furthermore, General Manager of Granard Knights & Conquests, Mr Bartle D’
Arcy, explained that while the artifact was not discovered in Granard, or at
Granard Motte, it was dug up from a drain in a nearby. Now, the National
Museum of Ireland have announced that their restorers will preserve the rare
piece of Norman armor .
这件罕见的，几乎完整的古代诺曼盔甲，浸透了 800 年的历史，最近在花园棚子里被发
现生锈。作为国家遗产周的一部分，发现者在参加 Granard Knights & Conquests 的“
诺曼人”活动后才意识到他的棚子里有什么。当发现者回家并发现他棚子里的物品与演员
们早些时候所穿的物品几乎相同时，他们挺身而出并通知了爱尔兰古物当局。
Granard Knights & Conquests 的旅游和教育官员 Deirdre Orme 告诉 RTE，这个锁扣是
“绝对惊人的发现”。此外，Granard Knights & Conquests 的总经理 Bartle D'Arcy
先生解释说，虽然这件神器没有在 Granard 或 Granard Motte 发现，但它是从附近的排
水沟中挖出来的。现在，爱尔兰国家博物馆宣布，他们的修复者将保存这件罕见的诺曼盔
甲。

An Origin Story As Grand As The Discovery, Perhaps?
Deirdre Orme of Granard Knights & Conquests said the team were “completely
blown away” when the finder presented their team of history lovers with the
800-year-old hauberk. The reason for her excitement was because the whole
scenario “completely links into what we’re doing here at the center –
tapping into our Norman history and heritage.”
The hauberk dates back to approximately 1172 AD when the Normans first
arrived in Ireland. This is why the archaeologists at the National Museum of
Ireland are associating the discovery with the story of Richard De Tuite,
Lord Chief Justice of Ireland, who in 1199 AD built a timber-frame castle and
motte. Whether or not the armor was indeed linked with the story of Richard
De Tuite, or not, Mr D’Arcy said that for the finder to have discovered the
almost whole, original Norman hauberk. “is just beyond belief.” And the
Norman culture specialist added that the whole discovery was amplified
because it coincides with Heritage Week.
Hauberk 的历史可以追溯到大约公元 1172 年，当时诺曼人首次抵达爱尔兰。这就是为什
么爱尔兰国家博物馆的考古学家将这一发现与爱尔兰首席大法官 Richard De Tuite 的故
事联系起来，他在公元 1199 年建造了一座木结构城堡和山丘。不管这件盔甲是否确实
与 Richard De Tuite 的故事有关，D'Arcy 先生说，发现者发现了几乎完整的原始诺曼
锁甲。“简直难以置信。” 诺曼文化专家补充说，整个发现被放大了，因为它恰逢遗产
周。

Changing The Face Of Ireland Forever
The history if Ireland is greatly composed with stories of ancient invasions.
The native Fir Bolg were defeated by the Tuatha De Dannan and they themselves
were banished to the mounds to exist only as faeries. However, none of the
mythological invasions were so near genocidal as were the real life Norman
invasions. For while several waves of giants and semi-divine armies have
attacked Ireland in ancient legends, none of them aimed to eradicate Irish
culture so much as did the Normans, backed by forces of Rome.

According to the New World Encyclopedia the Norman invasion of Ireland led to
“the eventual entry of the Lordship of Ireland into the Angevin Empire.”
This meant the Normans had the blessing of the Pope, which was a way to
punish the island’s Christianity that had failed to conform to Rome’s
strict rules of worship. The immediate consequences were the end of the
ancient linage of Irish High Kings and all of the timeworn ways of living and
dying, and the onset of English rule in Ireland, which continued until 1922.
The Norman hauberk is an artifact from the first days of these cataclysmic
changes that would entirely change the destiny of the Emerald Isle.
