Céide Fields in Ballina, Ireland, is an extensive Neolithic archaeological site that dates back nearly 6,000 years. This remarkable location is considered one of the oldest and most extensive Stone Age sites in the world. The landscape is characterized by a network of stone walls, field systems, and megalithic tombs that provide a glimpse into early agricultural practices and community life. The fields were preserved under a blanket of peat, which has protected them from the ravages of time, allowing researchers to explore the sophisticated and organized society that once thrived there.
