Mound is a prehistoric burial mound located in County Antrim, Northern Ireland. The site represents evidence of early funerary practice in the region, typical of Neolithic or Bronze Age communities who constructed such earthwork monuments as focal points for burial and ritual activity. The mound's physical form comprises an artificially raised earthwork, which would have served as a visible marker within the contemporary landscape. Such monuments are significant to understanding settlement patterns, social organisation, and religious beliefs amongst prehistoric populations in Ulster during the third and second millennia before the present era.
