===The Faerys Resting Place===

'''Abstract'''

Excavation of two Faery Mounds in Ireland, complete with sketches of the site layout.  A large number of artifacts of both miniature and gigantic proportions were found, both crafted with exacting detail, in what appears to be ritual burial sites (biers were set aside, but no bodies were present).  Artifacts included were mostly drinking vessels in clay and gold, gold torcs, and arms and armor made of a highly reflective, chromed metal as light as aluminum but stronger than steel that the Trust has, as yet, been unable to identify.  

'''About the Explorer'''

Scott Palmer is a folklorist and musician from County Cork, Ireland.  An itinerant busker, reformed street thief, occasional pavement artist, guide-for-hire, driver, diver and actor in several two-penny operas, he has spent the past year as a member of the Trust’s second European field team, much of that time spent on this dig.  This is his first article for the Journals.
