Ballynahatty in County Down is an astonishing site that deserves to be far better known for what it tells us about Neolithic timber monuments. A newly published report seeks to reconstruct the monument's original appearance, as Chris Catling reports.

Early Neolithic textiles ~8,000 years ago!
Rare preservation of cloth fragments (likely linen, woven from flax fibres) at an underwater site near Rome.
Also spindles with fibres around them, spindle whorls, weaving swords and loom weights.

Scanning Electron Microscope image of grass fibres from Neolithic Çatalhöyük.
The baskets made from these locally sourced fibres are some of the earliest examples of weaving in Europe and west Asia!

It was great to hear @Ellenocarrol_Ha talk about some of the environmental analysis of ecofacts retrieved from @IACArchaeology excavations along the N4 Collooney to Castlebaldwin scheme in #Sligo on behalf of @TIINews at the @Env_Arch_Ire conference.
Next up, Dr Ellen O'Carroll discusses TII paleoenvironmental guidelines and the use of multi proxy investigations along the N4 Road scheme.

Very interesting talk by @Lornacarr1 at the @Env_Arch_Ire conference on her research into post-medieval wood use in Ireland, with a focus on two @IACArchaeology excavations in #Blackpitts and #Newmarket in #Dublin by @d_mcilreavy. Reused imported ship and structural timbers.
