Cashel Man information


Cashel Man is a bog body from a bog near Cashel in County Laois, Ireland. He was found on 10 August 2011[1] by Bord na Móna employee Jason Phelan from Abbeyleix. The body was a young adult male, around 20–25,[2] who had been intentionally covered with peat after death. The crouched figure was recovered after being damaged by a milling machine in 2011. The head and left arm were presumed destroyed by the peat harvester, until later recovered.[3]

Radiocarbon dating places the man as having died around 2000 BC, making him one of the oldest bog bodies in Europe.[2][4]
