    Wow P, you have a real winner there. :) The bulb of percussion couldn't be any more obvious if it tried. And the general forming and the retouch too. It could nearly be a Mousterian point. What are its dimensions P?

    Thanks Wibbs.

    It's 56mm long x 27mm wide.

    Regarding the material I am not sure it's flint, I know it's hard to tell from a poor quality photo, but could it be something else?

    It is a very fine grained material of a predominately grey colour with a brown tinge.

    Interestingly I have been reading 'New materials, traditional practices: a Mesolithic silicified dolomite toolkit from Lough Allen, Ireland' by Killian Driscoll and the material seems very close to his description of Silicified Dolomite which can look very different depending on weathering etc.

    If not Mousterian could it be Clactonian??

    Another couple of slightly better photos..

    Defo not Clactonian :D Lovely piece though. Looks water rolled to me? I'd hazard a guess at neolithic?

    Another one, this is a beautiful wine/oxblood coloured fine grained flint like material.

    Could it be red jasper? is it a core?

    Thanks

    Definitely not a core and unlikely to be cultural. Could be jasper though.

    I've had age guesses of 20 years old to 1000 years old.
    I'm skeptical that they are as old as 1000 years old and just happened to be lying in a random shed but I am curious as to their origins.
    They have been keeping my plants company in my rockery but if they are something important I might need to take better care of them!!

    Definitely not a thousand years old but beautifully carved and it should be put somewhere safe for now. I would be inclined to run it by the National Museum and follow their recommendations for further action.

    Looks a bit like the head in this article. Note: they only used the image as a general one to show the head of NMI with an exhibit. Nothing in my he article about the exhibit itself.

    County museum has been out to inspect the heads. They seemed interested in them, took pics, measurments etc.
    I think the next step is for them to get in touch with the National Museum to see if they want to inspect them.

    The National Museum have sent me out a ‘report a discovery form’ which I posted back today.
    They will want to do a site visit but I'm not sure when.

    Very similar to a carving of a monks head on the side of a monastery founded by colmcille here.
    Not sure how old the one here is but I'll try get a pic and date.

    A spindle whorl would have a hole all the way through it, but it could be an unfinished example. Any more photos showing different views? I'd also post in the geology forum, it might be part of a fossil.

    Well I'm no geologist but the partial band of parallel lines around the hollow remind me of shell fossils (ammonite?) and natural forms often do a great job of looking man made. More photos of the opposite side and profile would be useful.

    Sorry just re reading your comment, do you mean that the centre has different material stuck in it? If so, then yes most likely a whorl. I was looking at it as all being the same piece of stone if you get me!

    Thanks for your help. I will try the Geologists. I really thought the markings on the front must be man made but nature is funny.

    I do find fossils on a daily basis here in the bedrock but this was in the soil so I was unsure.

    Hi guys

    Long shot but wondering if this was anything, like an axe head or something?

    I've no experience in archaeology but thought it looked like a tool.

    Found it at the edge of a rocky beach so obviously its probably one of the million other sea worn rocks on the beach!

    The area is rich in neolithic sites and middens etc

    Where I found it, it seemed like someone else had been inspecting it and discarded it.

    This is a real head scratcher!
    It could just be a rolled beach cobble that happens to be the same shape as a polished stone adze. An axe is shaped on both the upper and lower sides of the cutting edge. This appears to be (possibly) shaped on just one side which would make it an adze. The overall shape is close to being right but the sides don’t seem quite right to my eye. If it was an unfinished adze or axe rough-out, knapping scars would be expected and they are not evident. The petrology looks not quite right either but that might not be a decisive factor.
    The overall size is more or less right for a stone adze.
    Typically, axes and adzes are highest in the centre and rounded down to the sides. This is not visible in the photos. It might be present but it’s not possible to judge.
    A photo end on to the possible cutting edge would show this. If you put it on a flat surface, can you rock it from side to side?

    Hi guys found this along high water mark yesterday on a sheltered spot along the Shannon near Killimer. It was close to where a bit of erosion was taking place from the land bank. Was picking stones with the young fella for skimming when I spotted it. Different shape and type stone to the usual on the shore and feels heavier than its size. Anyway wondering if ye think that it might be an axe head or just natural ?

    Approx 14cm in length
    8.5cm at widest point
    3cm in depth

    Indentation on underside.

    Most likely a natural water-rolled cobble. The concave surface on the 'underside' is the key diagnostic feature. Polished stone axes should have an equal amount of curvature on both long surfaces, or a flat underside in the case of an adze. The blunt, square-across 'butt' supports this opinion.
    That said, it looks as though it could possibly have been in contact with high temperatures at some time. There is a reddish tinge that could be a result of brief contact with fire. Were there other red tinged stones in that area?
    It's not inconceivable that this cobble was picked up at random and used as an coarse stone tool, but without modification. If there are other stones near where this was found that exhibit fire reddening, then there is a greater chance that it is an arbitrary coarse stone tool. Context is everything!
    Great photos btw

    Had a brief look around when I was there and couldn't see any more stone of the same colour or texture, mostly limestone on the shore. Not from the area but on my next visit I will take a closer look.

    I spotted this enclosure on satellite imagery recently:

    46872024025_aa70697558_c.jpg

    46872035175_041500a027_c.jpg

    It doesn't appear on the National Monuments Service SMR database. Measuring approximately 50 metres in diameter, it sits on undulating tillage near Knavinstown, in south Kildare. There may be another large circular enclosure approximately 100 metres southwest of this enclosure (you can just about see it in the bottom right hand corner of the second image above). There are other smaller circular features dotted around this area too. I've sent a Monuments Report Form to the NMS.

    Intriguingly enough, there may be some association with this newly discovered enclosure and the Hill of Uisneach. The red line in the first image above is aligned to the Hill of Uisneach and marks the direction of the summer solstice sunset.

    I discovered a previously unrecorded enclosure not far from this one last year. KD022-122 lies one kilometre east of the above enclosure, and it's an enclosure I observed the Summer solstice sunset from last year. See post #175 here:

    So I was out at Ballyheigue Beach, Co Kerry yesterday morning at low tide and immediately noticed the large eroded area in front of the car park ( maybe a third of an acre or there about ). Had known that bog has been seen here before when winter storms shifted the sands.
    Quite a large area of bog with numerous tree stumps and lying embedded wooden debris can be seen scattered about.Could even see what looked like seeds or kernals. Also most notable is what appears to be areas cut out of the bog. A lot of these are neat rectangular shapes and saw what looks like the marks left by a slean at the edge of one bank, this looks later but could still be quite old. Also had the impression that there is track marks on the bog surface , like that left by a cart of some sort. Also seen what looks like horseshoe prints. To the right of this area was what again looked like recently exposed track of laid stone although this might be a natural deposit of stone. The stone itself seemed to be more jagged than what you normally find on a beach and more closely compacted ie not rolled by the wave action and would presume has not had much interaction with the seawater.
    Been searching on line but cant find any mention or pictures of this area. Have found reports of ' drowned forests been uncovered in Galway in 2014 / 2017 etc . Have seen dates for these from 4000 to 7500 years old.
    Would appreciate any thoughts or being pointed towards where to find any information on this area or if it is worth reporting further to service like national monuments etc.

    Great photos.
    The shod hoof prints look modern. I’m open to correction on this. That could be any time post 1700, or thereabouts.
    The tracks are a little narrow and close together for a wheeled cart. It’s likely that they are tracks from a slipe or slide cart. These were simple horse-drawn carts with two struts that dragged along the ground rather than wheels.
    They sound inefficient but they were ideal in wetland or in rough slopes and could be repaired easily with simple materials.
    This type of cart was in use right up to the 20th C for turf and stone extraction in mountainous areas.
    The evidence here might not be especially old but it is a fascinating glimpse into work practices frozen in time.
    Thanks

    A number of these ancient coastal forests have been exposed in recent years by the Atlantic storms. Great photos.
    There is peat submerged along the southern shore of the Dingle Peninsula in places also.

    I agree that that the bog area shown could have been worked until relatively modern times (18th or 19th century?) and just got covered by sands as seas have risen and land perhaps sunk in that area. Although it is difficult to say without a measure of how wide those tracks are, to me in one photo at least they look like the tracks made by a small lorry or even a car that sunk into soft land. Perhaps this area was previously uncovered by storms years ago and someone drove out onto it in a car or small truck for a lark? A measurement of the tracks might help.

    The tracks were only a few inches wide, would fit with the description given by slowburner of a slipe or slide cart. Cant get back now for a couple of weeks with the restrictions but will bring a measuring tape and meter stick for perspective , hopefully it will still be uncovered.

    Was thinking yes it could have been cut out sometime in the not so distant past after becoming exposed, hard to know how long ago but I will keep searching for any information and share with ye.

    The tracks were only a few inches wide, would fit with the description given by slowburner of a slipe or slide cart. Cant get back now for a couple of weeks with the restrictions but will bring a measuring tape and meter stick for perspective , hopefully it will still be uncovered.

    Was thinking yes it could have been cut out sometime in the not so distant past after becoming exposed, hard to know how long ago but I will keep searching for any information and share with ye.

    I was more thinking of the distance between the two tracks, whether it would match the distance between the wheels on a car axle for cars in the 1960s or 70's. Cars at that time had very narrow tyres compared to most modern ones and cars, or trailers built on car axles, would leave a track like that in soft ground. The other thing is that there does not seem to be any track left by whatever was pulling the thing making the tracks. If is sunk that far in the bog you would expect to also see the tracks of whatever was pulling it, either a horse/donkey, people power or tractor. Since there doesn't seem to be any other such tracks there I am suspecting a self propelled vehicle made the tracks, such as a car with narrow tyres that someone drove out on the exposed bog for a lark. Just a theory, I could be wrong!
