Settlement Sites
At Eochaill in County Galway, there is a recorded hut site, a designation that covers a broad range of ancient domestic remains, from the stone footings of early medieval dwellings to the more ephemeral traces of seasonal shelters used by people working upland or coastal ground.
The classification is modest almost to the point of invisibility, yet these sites are among the most direct connections we have to the texture of ordinary life in early Ireland, places where someone ate, slept, and kept out of the weather rather than prayed or fought or buried their dead.
