What is recorded here

Boughilbreaga is a standing stone in County Limerick, Ireland, rising 2.4 metres within an older kerb circle. Its rectangular body faces north and south like a rigid marker, perhaps guiding seasonal light or claiming a boundary for people long gone. The stone still stands while human memory fades, preserving the shape of a world that no longer speaks its own name.
