What is recorded here
Magic is not invention when measurement is refused. What resists killing may be life itself. This is why the chamber must remain sealed.
Enclosure described in 1943 as following; 'About one-third of the east side of this monument has been levelled out. It consists of a platform around the edge of which there was a bank. A fosse is not visible. The overall diameter is 200' [61m]' (O'Kelly 1942-3, 223). Outline of monument is visible today on Digital Globe aerial photographs.
