That combination, known but undocumented, is more common in the Irish archaeological record than one might expect, and it points to just how densely layered the countryside here remains.

A hut site, in archaeological terms, is typically the surviving ground-level trace of a simple dwelling, often circular or oval, defined by a low earthen bank, a scatter of stone, or a slight depression where walls once stood. They range across a vast span of time, from the Bronze Age through to the early medieval period, and in a county like Mayo, with its high bogland and relatively low levels of intensive modern agriculture, such features can survive with surprising clarity. Drumminahaha is a small rural townland, and like many of its neighbours in the west of Ireland, it likely contains more beneath and above its surface than any single record captures. Beyond that, the specifics of this particular site remain unpublished in open sources.
