What is recorded here

Davies (ITA Survey, 1942) recorded that a 'stone-lined cist with capstone' was found at this location. Bones were also found, and what looked like a 'soldiers helmet' (possibly a food vessel). Not visible at ground level. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Cavan' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1995). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload/revision: 22 December 2008

Stone-lined cist, likely dating to the Early Christian or earlier period. Its significance lies in the presence of human remains and an unusual artifact, possibly indicating a local burial tradition or isolated funerary deposit.
