What is recorded here
Indicated is a court tomb in County Mayo, Ireland, built from large stones arranged to mark a dead person and keep that memory visible. It may have stood beside a road, a field or a worship place, but the name gives no clue about the exact setting. The stones still resist time even when the story behind them fades.
