What is recorded here

Inishbig and Hog Island sit in County Clare, Ireland, named for shape and size rather than history. The distinction between big and hog suggests people once pointed at them separately, perhaps marking fishing grounds, hiding places or travel routes along the coast. Their names still do the work of memory, preserving a moment when the sea was known closely enough to judge every island at a glance.
