Enniskillen Castle

Archaeology

The earliest Stone Age items in the collection are flint implements from the Mesolithic Period, found on the shores of Cushrush Island in Lower Lough Macnean. Many of the later archaeological artefacts on display are on loan from the Ulster Museum, for example Neolithic pottery from a Court Tomb at Aghanaglack, a gold fastener from Tattykeel Lower, near Kesh, and a gold bracelet from Cleenaghan, near Ballinamallard. On loan from Armagh County Museum are amber beads, a bronze knife and a bronze chisel from Killycreen West, near Belcoo.
