What is recorded here

An unclassified Megalithic tomb in An Tinbhear, County Mayo, holds stones so old they predate every written name in the region. People may have gathered there to bury the dead, mark territory or watch the sky, yet no clear record preserves their intentions. The tomb still stands beside ordinary land, waiting for someone to notice what it kept hidden.
