Skull unearthed in Co Wicklow

caseyann

I dont know if this was posted already,i couldnt see it was.Apologies if it was.


Tests to identify a human skull discovered in a wooded area could take weeks to be completed.Forensic experts are examining the skull - believed to be that of an adult male - as search teams comb the private land near Blessington in Co Wicklow.

Over coming days the State Pathologist's office is expected to uncover how long the remains had been in the area, but establishing the identity is expected to take more time.

How many people are in them mountains. R.I.P whomever you are.

I had read few months back they were looking into a shallow grave looking spot that some hunters? I think it said came across.
Some people clearing the areas found this skull.


I know might be a bit far fetched,but is it time the police and mountain service went out and combed them hills,instead of waiting for someone to come across these poor lost people

There must be loads of people buried in the Dublin/Wicklow mountains.
It's too big of an area to search though-i heard before about how the Guards got a tip off on a general area of where someone was buried,and they still couldn't find anything.

Actually,a few bodies have turned up this week i think.
Hopefully though it will give a bit of closure to the familys.

If you comb one area one week the next area another week,its not that big.It sounds like a cop out( pardon the pun) to me.You see in Britain they can comb the mountains and hills for missing people for weeks before they will give up.The moor murders.They didnt stop until they found something.I mean they have sniffer dogs.These people were clearing away forestry and there it was,they weren't digging holes.

Go look in conspiracy theory forum and find serial killer thread.It will show you how many people are missing women wise.Not even men wise in Ireland and in Leinster area.

Would this be an IRA victim by any chance?

No they have contacted a few members of a few families to let them know.The other one is the man who was found i read about that also.Its in a different area altogether.

Yeah I was posting in that before but surely if it's the same area where people go missing couldn't they narrow it down to who's doing it?
Presuming it's one person.

The detective involved along with the police who came over,FBI i believe from US said they believed it to be a serial killer.But it was brushed under carpet.
They seem to be scattered all over the place.

I dont know what is involved in this case.As i believe they are saying this is a male.

Coriolanus

If it was properly decayed and old looking, I might have kept it. I've always wanted a human skull to stick on a shelf and the ones on ebay are stupidly expensive.

I know its AH,But people think someone related to that person could be getting very bad news very soon,and reading what is been said,and their worst fears realized about a loved one.

There was a recent news story about a skull found in the garden by builders doing up a house, SOCO cordened off the house and a full investigation started.
It was examined by forensics and found to be about 500 years old!

I wasn't saying it for a laugh. A professor I had in college had a skull on his shelf in his office.

I don't want a fake one. Like the one dolan baker is on about. No one is going to care about a 500 year old one.

Where i live there is one in our yard, examined and believe to be from famine times, is still there. My mam had a blessing said over it, and then built a bathroom on it. :oNo choice really. Loads around our area as there was a workhouse in the town, there is actually a mass grave (field) with just a little sign in the hedge as to what's in it. No plaques or anything to comemerate it.

Same here,kinda sad really.
Imagine though in 500 years someone comes along and digs it up,they'll wonder wtf happened here.:pac:

A skull was found up the lane from my house, last I heard the priest who found it still had it, he died though so no idea where it is now..

Actually dublin is odd in the fact that it has a wilderness like the dublin mounting within 50k of the city and no i have to dispute your point there.

Surely then shouldn't be to long before they find results.

both the lakes are exceptionally deep and we they usually weigh down the bodies by the time their found the bodies will have been eaten anyway.

How come its gonna take so long to identify the skull? I was watchin CSI the other day, and within 45 minutes of receiving the skull, they had the whole face reconstructed, then the whole body, the clothes they were wearing, jewellery and all! Then they identified who it was from a scratch on the jewellery they guessed he had on. Took about an hour and a half in total, from what I could tell.

If you'd actually bothered to read what i had written, i said the Dublin/Wicklow mountains. Which is what they are, as they run across both counties.
Get your facts right next time.

The Dublin/ Wicklow mountains form a natural County boundry between Wicklow and Dublin. Some of the mountains and peaks in this range are in South Dublin and they continue over to Dun Laoighre Rathdown. The Glenesmole valley also lies in the Dublin mountains

Peaks in South Dublin include Kippure 2,470 feet to the North, to the West is the Seefingan Mountain 2,364 Feet, Ballinescorney, Ballymorefinn 1,689, Corrig 2,055, Slievenabawg 2,055 feet and to the east the main hills are Glassmuckey, Piperstown and Montpellier -also know as the Hellfire Club

One of my uncles dissapeared in these mountains six years ago. As you can imagine it is always a time of tension for our family whenever remains are discovered. I suppose at this stage it would be a relief if they did find him.
