The Annals of Inisfallen are a chronicle of the medieval history of Ireland. There are more than 2,500 entries spanning the years between AD 433 and AD 1450, but it is believed to have been written between the 12th and 15th centuries. It was written by the monks of Innisfallen Abbey, on Innisfallen Island on Lough Leane, near Killarney. Kathleen Hughes conjectured that the Annals are among those derived from the hypothetical ''Chronicle of Ireland''. As well as the chronological entries, the manuscript contains a short, fragmented narrative of the history of pre-Christian Ireland, known as the ''pre-Patrician section''. This section has many elements in common with Lebor Gabála Érenn. The annals are now housed in the Bodleian Library in Oxford. In 2001, Brian O'Leary, a Fianna Fáil councillor in Killarney, called for the annals to be returned to the town. They are to be distinguished from the misnamed 18th century compilation known as the Dublin Annals of Inisfallen. ==See also== * Irish annals * The Chronicle of Ireland 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Annals of Inisfallen」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
