What is recorded here

Navan holds an Early Bronze Age habitation site where stakeholes and charcoal spreads marked a living home rather than a ritual place. Food Vessel pottery and worked flint still rest beside those ancient wooden shadows, waiting for human hands to remember the heat and noise they once held.

Discovered prior to road construction (Excavation Licence No. 93E0168). Excavations uncovered evidence for Early Bronze Age activity which appeared to be habitational rather than ritual. Bronze Age "Food Vessel" pottery and worked flint were found in association with stakeholes and charcoal spreads. (Opie 1994, 58) Reference: Opie, H. 1994 Navan. In I.
