Cormac Bourke (born in Dublin) is an Irish archeologist specialising in Medieval studies, early church history and insular Christianity. He is a former, long term, curator of Medieval Antiquities at the Ulster Museum, Belfast, and currently works at the antiquities department of the National Museum of Ireland.[1]
His publications focus on early medieval Irish metalwork and the archaeology of saint's relics,[1] and range from surveys of early Irish hand-bells, to Insular croziers, Celtic brooches, crucifixion plaques and cumdachs.[2][3]
Describing his widely praised 2022 book, The Early Medieval Hand-bells of Ireland and Britain, on a topic that was relatively under-studied, the National Museum of Ireland wrote that the "breadth of research undertaken, and extraordinary level of detail and description provided throughout...make it the most authoritative study ever undertaken on medieval hand-bells...[and] an immense achievement both nationally and internationally."[1]
