Irish Life & Lore - Voices from the Archive

Prehistoric Treasures of Ireland


Listen Later

Over the years, we at Irish Life and Lore have recorded people involved in the discovery of prehistoric artifacts and structures which have remained hidden for thousands of years in Ireland.

These include a cutaway bog in a valley on the Beara Peninsula, close to Castletownbere, Co. Cork; a crannog (prehistoric dwelling) found in a bog in the midlands, near Edenderry, Co. Offaly; a flint arrowhead discovered at the site of Queen Scotia's grave near Tralee, Co. Kerry and a penannular brooch discovered in the ashes from a turf fire in a house near Ballylongford, Co. Kerry.
