What is recorded here
Shanvally holds a man-made underground passage hidden inside its rath, yet no surface trace remains for anyone to follow. Local tradition preserves the cave while human memory released its shape, location and purpose. The earth keeps what people stopped repeating, waiting for patience rather than tools.
