Ó Cróinín, Dáibhí, “Who was Palladius, ‘first bishop of the Irish’?”, Peritia 14 (2000): 205–237.
- journal article
The year ad 431 is the most famous one in early Irish history. Prosper of Aquitaine, in his Chronicle, remarks that Palladius was sent to Ireland in that year by Pope Celestine as ‘first bishop to the Irish believing in Christ’. However, the consensus is that no trace of Palladius survives after that date, either in Irish or in continental sources. This paper presents new evidence for identifying Palladius and establishing where he came from, and for the place of his later cult in Ireland.
