What is recorded here

Crannoge is a crannog in County Clare, Ireland, where ancient people built a living island amid open water. The name itself records that choice: a made place, not a found one. Rooms, hearths and thresholds may have stood there before the lake took them back, turning human ingenuity into legend.
