What is recorded here

Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in Curraheen (trughanacmy By.) stands in County Kerry, Ireland. It is a ringfort - rath, an old earthen circle where people may have lived, hidden or worshipped before the hills forgot their names. The earth still holds the shape of that forgotten life, waiting for boots, rain or wonder to bring it back.
