What is recorded here
Stand behind the stone in Lismoran at sunrise and watch its shadow stretch across the grass like a measuring rod. The stone has no marker, no museum rope, no warning about touch. It belongs to nobody and everyone who walks past. That absence of ownership is the point. A stone kept private becomes a curiosity. A stone kept visible becomes a witness.
