Recorded monuments

• CV042-049 Cist
  Description

  Situated on a rise in a slight hollow in a gently undulating landscape. In 2009 a cist was discovered in landscaping work and investigated by the National Museum of Ireland. The cist (int. dims c. 7m NW-SE; c. 0.6m NE-SW; D c. 0.5m) was defined by four slabs and had been covered by a single large capstone in a stony area. This suggests that there may have been a cairn at some time although no evidence of one was present. There was one large floorstone with smaller slabs around the edges. The complete tripartite Bowl Food Vessel together with the inhumation were removed on discovery and their disposition cannot be recovered, although the body was probably flexed. The bowl has two horizontal ribs and is decorated in horizontal panels of oblique and horizontal incised lines. The bones represented one juvenile, aged 6-7 years at death. A sample of a rib bone produced a C14 date of 1955-1752 cal. BC. (Sikora et al. 2018) Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of upload: 16/09/2020
