What is recorded here

One chamber, one doorway, one crossing: Shronahiree More still keeps its small stone witness. The church stands in County Kerry, Ireland, and the slab marks the place where human hands made faith visible. Cross-slab in Shronahiree More is not a distant idea; it is a living address, waiting to be seen, judged and remembered.

This slab stands approximately 1m inside the doorway of the church (KE082-001001-). It is .65m high and measures .15m x .09m at base. The upper portion of its NE face has a linear Latin cross with bifid terminals at both ends of its shaft. The above description is derived from O'Sullivan, A. and Sheehan, J. (compilers) 'The Iveragh peninsula: an archaeological survey of South Kerry'. Cork University press. (1996), no. 969. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload: 13 June 2013

This cross-slab is likely of early medieval Christian origin, dating to between the 8th and 11th centuries. It may have served as a funerary or commemorative marker, reflecting the spread of Christianity in the region.
