The lower leg bones of an adult have been found in Ireland’s Rossan Bog.
A team of archaeologists and conservators from the National Museum of Ireland spent last weekend examining the find at the bog before removing the remains on Monday.
They have yet to determine the gender or age of the body, but are convinced the remains are those of an adult.
Further analysis of the bog body will now take place in the National Museum of Ireland’s conservation laboratory at Collins Barracks, Dublin.
