Hope you all have a great St Patrick’s Day!

Signs of violence were also identified. The hip bone of a male had the tip of a stone projectile point embedded in it.

Poulnabrone is a remarkable site. One of my favourite megalithic tombs, helped by its wonderful setting in the Burren of course! Poulnabrone, a large stone tomb consisting of an enormous ca
