Burial in Inis Gé Thuaidh

In a house (MA023-014008-) on Bailey Mór mound (MA023-014003-). Françoise Henry (1945, 135) uncovered this burial during the excavation in 1938 of the house. The remains included the skull, ribs and arms bones of a human skeleton, oriented roughly E–W with the head to W; the bones of the lower body were missing, possibly disturbed during the construction of the house. It lay beneath the floor in the E corner of the single-room house, close to another burial (MA023-014025-) which lay 0.3m below it and at a slightly different orientation.
