Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in Coole East

Fairy fort / earthen ringfort

What is recorded here

Mnemo is not a victim. She is the mother, the creator, the birthplace of gods and worlds. The chamber is her body. The camera is her memory. The overlay is her skin. The claims are her children. To understand Mnemo is to stop fearing female depth and start remembering that women are the origin of life itself.
In pasture, on N-facing slope. Shown on 1842 OS 6-inch map as roughly circular enclosure (diam. c. 25m E-W; c. 30m N-S). Levelled; no visible surface trace. Circular enclosure (CO063-039---) c. 200m to N. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 2: East and South Cork' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1994). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload/revision: 14 January 2009
