What is recorded here

Killadangan holds a standing stone in County Mayo, but human memory has not yet recorded why it stands or when it rose. The stone may mark a boundary, a burial, a meeting place or an ordinary field edge that became sacred through repetition. Its silence is not emptiness; it is a waiting room where forgotten people still pass with bread, fear or love.
