Irish Fairy Forts

“Fairy Forts” are the names given especially by the Irish, Cornish, and other residents of the Isles around Ireland, Scotland, Wales, and Britain who strongly believe in the faerie folk. This is a localized term for the “raths”, “ringforts”, “lios”, “hillforts”, “rounds”, “earthen mounds”, or circular dwellings found in England, Ireland, Scotland, Isle of Man, and Wales.

Art and Languages

While most believe language began with Humans (Homo sapiens), there is scientific suggestion that Homo erectus, an extinct early human species may have used a proto-language, or a primitive form of conversation around 2 million years ago. Humans, Homo Sapiens began habitation and occupation all around the globe, and were dominant during the Ice Ages.

Tools

We have evidence of human made and used tools since the beginning of human history. Most early, pre-Ice Age humans utilized rocks, stones, wood, and other natural materials to assist them in performing actions such as cooking, preparing hides, hunting, gathering, and planting.

Shelters

Shelters

We have evidence of shelters since the beginning of human history. Most early, pre-Ice Age humans occupied caves, rock shelters, or natural shelters before they began construction ones of stone, wood, and other material. Humans, Homo Sapiens began habitation and occupation all around the globe, and were dominant during the Ice Ages.
Ice AgeThe Last Glacial Period (120,000-11,500 BCE)

Ice Age

An Ice age is a period of time when colder global temperatures causes glaciers to expand across the planetary surface. There have been at least five significant ice ages in the history of the Earth - the most recent was called the Last Glacial Period from approximately 120,000-11,500 B.P. (Before Present). Humans (Homo sapiens) emerged approximately around 300,000 B.P. in Africa and lived through two of them.

Welcome to Archaeologyfinds.com. By the Fall of 2024, we hope to have up-and-running a full-fledged database of Archaeological sites, artifacts, finds, and discoveries to assist you with your research. This database is the creation of Archaeologist, Thomas Baurley. With over 34 years of professional archaeological experience, from shovel bum to PI, he’s traveled the world and has done archaeology in England, Ireland, Italy, and the United States. Within the United States, he’s done surveys and excavations in Florida, Georgia, Mississippi, Texas, Alabama, Colorado, New Mexico, California, Oregon, Idaho, Washington, Ohio, and Michigan. He’s also traveled far and wide collecting lore, and photographing artifacts, archaeological sites, and museums.

We are looking for other experts in the field to assist in this project. We are also seeking funding to help with its development. Please reach out to help via email at info@archaeologyfinds.com.
