The society petered out. A number of years later another effort was made by some of those involved in the society by creating the in 1818. Another initiative was the Irish Archaeological Society of 1840. In 1854, it merged with the Dublin Celtic Society, which had formed in 1845. The Ossianic Society, established in Dublin in 1853, was a rival to the Irish Archaeological and Celtic Society. Other efforts were made by the Society for the Preservation of the Irish Language in 1877, and its successor in the Gaelic Union in 1880. Ultimately the Gaelic revival succeeded with the successful establishment of the Gaelic League in 1892. (en)
