What is recorded here

Carnloghern holds a buried chamber where three gold lunulae once appeared, though no one now remembers the exact spot. The tomb belongs to the deep prehistoric dark, when people shaped metal into moonlight and hid it inside stone. Forgetting the place does not diminish it; it returns the gold to mystery and the chamber to patience.

The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as MEGALITHIC TOMB & FINDSPOT OF THREE GOLD LUNULAE (unlocated). Recorded period: PREHISTORIC. The official map point was placed at the centre of the recorded archaeological site from the source map reference.

Megalithic tomb, likely dating to the Neolithic or Early Bronze Age. Its significance lies in the association with three gold lunulae, rare and important prehistoric gold ornaments found in Ireland.
