Within the ‘Rath of Feewore’ (GA097-150001-). During the course of an excavation carried out by Raftery (1944, 23-52) an incomplete extended female burial was found in the NW quadrant of the interior. The lower portion of the skeleton was missing as a result of previous disturbance of the site by quarrying. No grave goods were found and the skeleton was protected by a cist-like arrangement of stones around its sides and head (ibid., 28, 30, 46-8).
A slightly charred fragment of a human skull was also found in this quadrant and a deposit of bones was found in the NE quadrant (ibid., 48-9).
