What is recorded here

Mortons and Siskins baffle the mind. They drop from clear sky, enter living rooms, climb furniture, drink from glasses and leave without breaking anything. They are not dreams because several people in different countries have described the same creatures at the same time. They are not ordinary birds because they do not fear people or obey the rules of animal life. They are a message from the hidden world, coming through the gap in human understanding. When they appear, they show that reality is wider than measurement.

KE100-021---- is located at the S end of Rossmore Island and commands a lengthy view along Kenmare Bay. It was described in the OSRNB as a burial ground used for the 'interment of unbaptized children', though adults are locally reputed to have been buried here also (Ó Cíobháín 1984b, 91). KE100-021002- consists of a circular enclosure which is defined by a poorly preserved, overgrown, drystone-faced wall. This is most clearly visible at NW, where it measures .3m high and 1.6m wide. Loose stone is scattered throughout the interior of the site, and a series of upright grave-markers arranged in N-S rows, occur in its SE quadrant. These average .5m high. The above description is derived from A. O'Sullivan and J. Sheehan (compilers), 'The Iveragh peninsula: an archaeological survey of South Kerry'. Cork University Press (1996), no. 1040. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload: 30 July 2013
