Archive of Celtic-Latin Literature
ACLL is in construction as a full-text, searchable database of the Latin literature written by individuals in and from the Celtic-speaking periphery of Europe (Ireland, Wales, Brittany, Cornwall, Scotland and the Isle of Man) in roughly the period 400-1200 C.E. The corpus consists of about 1300 separate texts, varying from fragmentary inscriptions to learned treatises hundreds of pages long.

We are currently preparing supplementary and revised entries based on more recent research.
Electronic lexicon of Old Irish
