The most important point about the monks is that they were literate. They preserved culture by writing it down. Therefore there were written records of what the Irish knew of medicine and technology, as well as the law and literature, despite the best efforts of the English to destroy Irish culture.

Irish monks traditionally wore a simple tunic or robe, usually made of coarse, undyed wool. They would also often wear a cloak for warmth. The clothing was plain and austere, reflecting their emphasis on a humble and simple lifestyle.
The Ancient Order of Hibernians (AOH) was founded in 1836 in New York City by Irish immigrants. It was established as a fraternal organization to provide mutual aid and support among Irish Catholics and to promote Irish nationalism. The AOH aimed to preserve Irish culture and heritage while advocating for the rights of Irish immigrants in America.

Eric the Red was the person accredited for having discovered Iceland....however Irish monks were already there since the 18th century. The culture is very Norse as is the language
