Cross-slab in Eochaill (bar. Árainn)

One of three cross-slabs (see also GA110-084003- and GA110-084004-) in the field to the E of ‘Teampall Asurnaí’ (GA110-084001-). This fragment of a limestone cross-slab (L 0.5m; Wth 0.39m) bears a Maltese-type cross within a two-line circle. The remains of a two-line shaft extend below the circle.

This cross-slab likely dates to the early medieval period, associated with Christian worship or burial practices. The Maltese-type cross suggests a connection to broader Insular Celtic Christian traditions.
