What is recorded here

Indicated is a fairy fort in County Mayo, an earthen ring where human history has thinned to myth. The soil may have held a farm, a temple or a childhood home before the names vanished, but the boundary remains sharp enough to suggest intention. People still point at it instead of explaining it, which means the place is doing its work: refusing to be owned by certainty.
