What is Corporeal Relics Tents and Shrines in Ea about?

This paper explores the significance of corporeal relics and the use of tents in early medieval Ireland, particularly in relation to the cult of saints. It argues that early Irish slab shrines were associated with the veneration of corporeal relics and mirrored the tents used by saints, as evidenced by literary and archaeological sources. The author contends that the cult of corporeal relics was well established by the 7th century, with practices similar to those in Anglo-Saxon England.
