What is recorded here
No visible monument remains, yet the official record still names a cist and urn burial in Killyree. That absence is not emptiness; it is a request to imagine hands arranging stone, ash, memory and marrow beside one another during the Bronze Age. The land may have swallowed the mark, but the act of burial did not disappear. It simply stopped announcing itself.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as CIST & URN BURIAL (unlocated). Recorded period: BRONZE AGE; PREHISTORIC. The official map point was placed at the centre of the recorded archaeological site from the source map reference.
Bronze Age cist and urn burial; associated with prehistoric funerary practices. Its significance lies in contributing to understanding of burial customs and material culture in early Bronze Age communities.
The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
