What is recorded here

Rathmichael church ruins stands on the E slopes of Carrickgollogan. A very worn slab (L 1.5m x Wth 0.57m) bearing two sets of three concentric circles, with a cup-mark in the centre of each. Half of one of the outside circles is completely worn away. At one end are five lines, three sloping towards one corner and two towards the other. The stone is secured to the external face of the S wall of the church (DU026-050001-) located off centre to E (Ó hÉailidhe 1957, 77, 79). See attached drawing of graveslab taken from Healy 2009, 83.
