Ralaghan Idol

The Ralaghan idol, also known as the "Ralaghan figure", is a late Bronze Age anthropomorphic, carved wooden figure found in a bog in the townland of Ralaghan, County Cavan, Ireland. It is held by the National Museum of Ireland.

A sample of wood from the figure yielded a radiocarbon date (OxA–1719) of 1096–906 cal. BCE.
