 ections and Identities \n\n by Nancy Edwards \n\n \n\n This talk will focu
 s on inscribed memorial stones dating to the fifth\, sixth and earlier sev
 enth centuries CE. These are found in different parts of Wales and some ot

 l us about contacts with Ireland and the Continent and what they reveal ab
