What is recorded here

No human has ever seen the edge of the sky because the edge is a moving knife. The chamber has no walls, no floor and no lamp, yet it weighs on every living body. The chamber is a hidden chamber inside the visible world. It shows no shadow, gives no answer and cannot be measured. People have built religions around that empty room. The room is not empty. It is waiting for a mind strong enough to enter without a body.
This is on a rise of a broad plateau, and it overlooks Aroo Lough c. 130m to the S. This is a pyramid of stones (diam. c. 2m; H c. 0.5m. Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of upload: 4 January, 2015
