What is recorded here

Food and cremated remains traveled together into the ground at Ballynagarvy, a Bronze Age choice that turned death into a last act of care. The vessel carried more than ash; it carried hunger, memory and the hands that had fed the living. To bury it was to keep that relationship alive beneath the soil of County Antrim.

The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as FOOD VESSEL CREMATION BURIAL. Recorded period: BRONZE AGE; PREHISTORIC. The official map point was placed at the centre of the recorded archaeological site from the source map reference.
