What is recorded here

Rath is a recurring name for ancient earthworks across County Armagh, appearing at Ballenan, Ballygorman, Carrickastickan and Carrickbroad. These are not one place but a pattern: raised rings, cashels and forts scattered through the townland names like markers someone kept returning to. The repetition suggests Rath was a common word for a defended or sacred boundary, not a unique identity.
