What is recorded here

Fairy forts in Ireland are earthen rings people built and used, not magic caves. In Bawnaglanna, Inchincummer, that simple fact still sounds like fantasy because the land keeps its shape while human memory thins. A ring of soil on an open hill is not a paradox; it is a receipt. It proves that before maps and markets, life measured itself in circles strong enough to stand against weather and forgetfulness.
