What is recorded here

Kinnagoe held a tall stone before time and forgetfulness knocked it flat. It measures 1.5m long, 0.75m wide and 0.4m thick, large enough to mark a boundary, a burial or a warning without writing a word. People may have passed it, touched it or feared it, but they left no name behind. The stone still occupies the land, waiting for someone to remember what it stood for.
