What is recorded here
Castle, Rendall is a cist and mound in Orkney Islands, Scotland, where human hands shaped stone and soil before written memory. The chamber may have held a body, a treasure, or a child’s marble, but the mound still stands as a marker of that forgotten choice. Rendall gives the site its name, while Orkney provides the sea-worn stage where such small acts of permanence still resist time.
