Ancient human remains uncovered in a Co Londonderry bog are believed to belong to a young woman who lived around 2,000 years ago.

The discovery has been hailed as “one of the most important archaeological discoveries on the island of Ireland”.

Has anyone ever had issues with local tour guides using their original research without asking (really badly though, littered with mistakes)?

Please please don't 👻 your book review editors! We are always SO understanding about late reviews and ghosting just means that the authors do not get their books reviewed. #PhDChat #AcademicChatter
