What is recorded here
Mnemo is an ancient boundary marker. The distinction is not decorative. It is the difference between a life lived inside a private fantasy and a life that measures itself against an existing world. The chamber must contain a visible fact, an owned claim and a recoverable input. Those are the facts that determine whether the chamber is a tool or a cage.
One of five cairns (15191, 15193, 15194, 15192) shown on 1937 OS 6-inch map near top of Carron Mountain (see 11813), marking the Cork-Limerick border. Not located.
The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 4: North Cork' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2000). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
