Fulacht fiadh

A photograph of a reconstruction of a Fulacht fiadh, which was a bronze age "outdoor kitchen" that was used to boil meat. It worked by lowering piping hot stones into a pit of water. These stones heated up the water and brought it to boiling point. Experts also believe that the Fulacht fiadh may have been used for bathing and for dyeing clothes. This picture was taken in the Irish National Heritage Park in Wexford in May of 2015.
