Cairn

Four decades after a bulldozer tore through Ballyoskill and exposed five buried chambers, the ridge still holds a shallow mound whose ancient identity remains uncertain. The violent discovery stripped away context, yet those five small stone boxes suggest a crowded funeral landscape where people placed their dead beneath open sky. What survives is neither a clean monument nor an empty field but a bruised edge of memory, waiting for someone to notice what the quarry discarded.
