Discover Irish lives in the Knowledge Graph
Over 10,000 figures in the Knowledge Graph are drawn from the Dictionary of Irish Biography (DIB), a flagship research programme of the Royal Irish Academy, in partnership with the Virtual Treasury. The DIB tells Ireland’s story through the biographies of those born in Ireland, who came to prominence at home or overseas, and the noteworthy Irish careers of people born outside Ireland. Over time, historical figures from other sources will be added to the Graph, building a dynamic, expanding resource for people in Ireland’s past.
