I have now reposted from Impala Part 10 of his series The Ulster People . This concludes the Ancient Era. I will continue with two more 'Eras', the Medieval and the Modern, which will follow soon. This material stems from the book that I consider my best, The Ulster People (Pretani, 1991.I have now amended this material to some degree.

Here is a Summary, with links, of The Ancient Era.
