One of the greatest treasures of its kind, the Book of Kells is an illuminated religious manuscript from the medieval period. Written in Latin, it contains the four Gospels of the New Testament and would have been crafted by the Celtic monks in the Columban monastery on Iona, circa 800. From 795 onwards, Vikings began to strike Iona, and in the year 806 a single Viking raid killed 68 monks. At some point in the decades after, the survivors decided to leave the island and relocated to Ireland and a monastery at Kells. The prevailing theory is that the Book of Kells travelled with them, and was also possibly finished there. It remained at Kells for the next eight centuries – hence how it came to be known as the Book of Kells.
