An archaeologist excavating at an 11th century ringfort in Ireland has unearthed the oldest ink pen ever discovered in Ireland. What’s unusual, is that this artifact was a secular work tool used for writing legal documents. It wasn’t used to create iconic medieval Christian works of art. Dating back 1,000 years, Ireland’s oldest known ink pen was unearthed by archaeologist Michelle Comber of the National University of Ireland (NUI) Galway. Dr Comber discovered the artifact within an 11th-century archaeological layer at the Caherconnell Cashel ringfort, County Clare, Ireland.
