Two Ancient Tombs Unearthed in Ireland | Galway News

Archaeologists in Maree, County Galway, have uncovered two 6,000-year-old Neolithic tombs — a rare find in Ireland, as it’s the only site with both a court tomb and a portal tomb together. The discovery, led by University of Galway researchers and local volunteers, reveals intricate burial practices, ceremonial use of the sites, and even a unique amethyst pendant. The court tomb, one of Ireland’s most southern examples, sits beside a massive portal tomb with a 14-ton capstone. Artifacts like stone tools, pottery, and cremated remains point to complex social structures and trade networks reaching as far as Rome. This find deepens our understanding of Neolithic life and belief systems — proving ancient communities were far more organized and spiritually rich than we once thought.
