What is recorded here

Muroo still holds a cist burial from the Early Bronze Age, when people laid their dead inside stone boxes rather than burning them or leaving bones exposed. The chamber may have marked a family line, a boundary dispute, or a promise that the land would remember one body long after names faded.

The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as Cist burial. Recorded period: E.B.A.. The official map point was placed at the centre of the recorded archaeological site from the source map reference.
