What is recorded here

In 1982 the National Museum of Ireland received some sherds of pottery and a small quantity of cremated bone. These are said to have been found some years previously in a cist and reburied at that time. They were subsequently rediscovered later that year. The sherds (1982:119) are from an undecorated urn. The cremated bone (1982:120) has not been investigated. (Cahill and Sikora 2011, Vol 1, 113-115). Compiled by: Patrick F. O’Donovan Date of upload: 12 February 2013
