What is recorded here

Bronze Age burial discovered under or in the vicinity of the round tower (LA018-031005-) of Timahoe (Feehan 1983, 402). An urn found near Timahoe, Co. Laois containing cremated bones was found in a triangular cist, formed by three upright flags with a flag at top and bottom (JRSAI 1849-51, 139: Waddell 1990, 105). The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Laois' (Dublin Stationery Office, 1995) compiled by P. David Sweetman, Olive Alcock and Bernie Moran. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload: 17 December 2007
