What is recorded here

Children died young in Rahanane and were buried inside the rath, though no grave or marker remains visible to prove the loss. The earth kept their names without asking permission, smooth and unbroken above the dead. Forgetting is not the same as mercy.

According to local information, the rath (KE059-007----) was used as a children's burial ground. There are no visible remains of any graves or grave-markers in the interior of the rath.
