Much has been written about the history of Northern Ireland, but less well-known is its wealth of prehistoric
sites, from which most of our knowledge of the early inhabitants of this country has been obtained. Until
recently, the greatest sources for this information were prehistoric burial sites, which have been visible in
our landscape for thousands of years and have attracted the attention of inquisitive people throughout this
time, often removing items, or adding others and in doing so, making it difficult for later generations to sift
through the evidence. Fortunately, sketches, not« and artefacts have been gathered by Ordnance Survey
surveyors, antiquarians and archaeological and historical societies and these continue to be interrogated by
modern archaeologists in their search for understanding.
A further problem has been the dependence on information about prehistoric societies from their burial sites.
Very few sites where these people lived and worked were visible above ground and as a consequence, little was
known about them. However, during the last few decades, large-scale infrastructure projects and associated
archaeological investigation has revealed a wealth of information. Much of the detail has still to be published
and made available for research, but has already enriched understanding of our prehistoric past.
This monograph brings together information on all the currently known sites in Northern Ireland that are
in some way associated with prehistoric life. It has been compiled from a number of sources and includes
many that have only recently been discovered. A total of 1580 monuments are recorded in the inventory,
ranging from burnt mounds to hillforts. In addition to providing ¿n inventory of all known sites, along with
a selection of photographs and plans, the work also includes an introduction to the prehistory of Northern
Ireland, an explanation of terms and a full bibliography, it should be considered alongside an earlier work
by the same authors on prehistoric burial sites in Northern Ireland (The Prehistoric Burial Sites of Northern
Ireland, Archaeopress Archaeology 2014). The aim is to provide a foundation for more specific research
projects, based on a standardised format for this largely untapped resource and stimulate a renewed interest
in the prehistory of Northern Ireland. Hopefully, this can then be considered along with our knowledge of
the historical period to provide a more complete overview of the story of human activity in what is now
Northern Ireland.
Harry Welsh is an archaeologist and historian and currently works at the Centre for Archaeological Fieldwork
at Queen's University, Belfast. He has participated in and directed many archaeological excavations from
Mesolithic to early modern periods and has published many books, articles and reports on archaeological
sites and associated matters, as well as documenting and publishing on the history of the fire service in
Northern Ireland. He has also managed the fieldwork activities of the Ulster Archaeological Society for many
years and is an enthusiastic supporter of community archaeology projects.
June Welsh is a retired primary school teacher and has been a member of the Ulster Archaeological Society
for many years. She has participated in a wide range of archaeological excavations and surveys, publishing
many archaeological survey reports on the society website. She also took part in a research project funded
by the Royal Irish Academy into prehistoric burials in Ireland, it was this project that led to her collaboration
in the 2014 publication The Prehistoric Burial Sites of Northern Ireland, also published by Archaeopress, and
this stimulated her interest in the life of prehistoric people. |
