Tievebulliagh Mountain is part of the Glens of Antrim mountain range in Northern Ireland. This mountain is known for its steep relief and sheer rocks. At 554 metres high, its origins date back to the time when the mountain was once a volcano. Today, the volcano is extinct, and the mountain is home to numerous archaeological remains.
At 554 metres above sea level, Tievebulliagh Mountain is a major archaeological dig site. It was here that numerous prehistoric artifacts were found, including bracelets, polished axe heads, chisels and polishing tools. According to the researchers, this abundance of objects can be explained by the richness of the mountain. It has to be said that the latter is primarily composed of basalt, flint and porcellanite, materials that were highly prized in Neolithic times.
The men of the time just had to help themselves!
The mountain also boasts an impressive cairn at the summit. The most courageous and the best walkers will be able to admire its round structure, covered with stones and earth. Dating from the Bronze Age, it was near this building that the place where most of the region’s axes were made was discovered.
In terms of tourism, the mountain offers magnificent views of the Glens of Antrim. Beware, however: the mountain is difficult to climb, and is only suitable for groups of good walkers.
