also the landscape (at least in cork) is dotted with ringforts, which were built from the bronze age through to 1000 ad. they consisted of earthen walls enclosing a small settlement with farm animals. my understanding is that almost none of them have been archaeologically excavated. nowadays they are usually considered unlucky and avoided by people.

Hey! Tell them to leave the grave alone.

It’s my great, great, great, great, great, great, great, great, great, great, great, great, great, great granddad’s grave.

Leave him alone.

The new, legit uploads to YT have that Timeline host’s intro, which I generally speed right through.

Over the years I’ve posted links to a number of Time Team vids, and some of Tony’s.

It must have been important to the living to go to that much trouble. I wonder if it doesn’t turn out to be a charnel house.

My Mother showed me a whole area with these rock constructions out near Dingle. They lookes like constructed cave entrances but didn’t seem t go very deep. You are right the locals stay away from these locations.

That Time Team stuff is high quality archeology ggg level material.
