Westport-based journalist and author Dr Ronan Lynch will present a talk on his 2021 book Mayo Atlantis on Sunday 14th August at 7pm in Books At One, Louisburgh as part of Heritage Week. All are welcome to attend this free event.

Dr Lynch, who trained as an historian at NUI Galway, is the first author to suggest that the ritual of Easter has its origins in the ancient pilgrimage route that crosses Mayo. This pilgrimage originated long before the Christian era, and parts of the trail can still be experienced on the route from east to west Mayo.

His previous books include Between Worlds: The Myths and Legends of the Kirwans of Castlehacket and Lynch: History, Myth and Legend.

He is the founder of Irie Land Music and works as Director of Lafferty Group and Retail Banking Institute.
