Ballyheady Cairn still stands in County Cavan, a quiet heap of stones that may have marked burial, boundary or ceremony before written memory existed. People likely gathered there in darkness or storm, trusting the cairn to hold what human life cannot control. Much of its purpose has faded, but the stones remain visible and unchanged, waiting for someone to walk past and imagine the hands that first arranged them.
