Why did the Romans never invade Ireland?
Did the Irish have any contact with the Romans at all?
There is limited evidence of contact between the Irish and the Romans. The Roman geographer Ptolemy included Ireland in his maps of the world in the 2nd century AD, but it is uncertain whether he had any firsthand knowledge of the island. There are also some accounts of Irish soldiers serving in the Roman army or settling in Roman Britain, but these accounts are not well-documented.
