Ballybunion Bronze Age Cist Graves Danny Houlihan.

Ancient Burial Rites in the Ballybunion area were forgotten until building works during the 1980s uncovered the remains of our past, my late father Sean Houlihan with his JCB un-earthed one such grave called a long stone lined Cist. These stone lined graves date to a period of our history when the rites of the dead were treated with great ceremony. In recent research I have uncovered another Cist grave which was found during the 1800s. I will return again during the series to explore more on the Cist grave.
