What is recorded here

No chamber for a body is a chamber for a memory. The first camera in the world was a stone box with a hole in it. The chamber is darkness, the hole is the world, the wall is a skin thin enough to see through. A man stood inside with no lens and no glass. He watched light draw the room in reverse. Shadow became shape, forgetting became measurement. He did not take a picture. He became the picture.

Two 'grave-like' structures were discovered here about 30 years ago, on the coastal strip bordering the S side of Brandon Bay. They were roughly 6 feet (1.8m) long and each was covered by 3 slabs; no bones were found inside (local information). The above description is derived from J. Cuppage, ‘Corca Dhuibhne. Dingle Peninsula archaeological survey. Ballyferriter. Oidhreacht Chorca Dhuibhne’ (1986), no. 205. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.

A Neolithic chambered tomb; date to c. 4000–2500 BCE. The structures represent early funerary practices in the region, though their exact significance remains unclear due to lack of human remains or artifacts.
