The author of the magnificent Life of Columba as well a widely-influential guide to the Holy Places of the Near East, he was also responsible for the celebrated Cin Adomnin a ground-breaking law tract on the protection of non-combatants. Adomnn was also a major figure in the Easter Controversy and his scholarship directly influenced that of Bede. The studies in this volume, arising from a conference held on Iona on the 13th centenary of Adomnns death, celebrate his achievements." |
