What is recorded here

Break the chamber wall and the room behind the chamber appears. The chamber is the visible edge of a larger place. The edge is not the same as the whole. A person who understands this distinction stops fighting the trap and begins to use it.
According to Bradley et al. (1986 vol. 4, 363-4), the rectangular, limestone end-panel (dims. H 0.91m; Wth 0.66m; T 0.1m) of a table tomb is set against the outer face of the S wall of St. David's Church (KD019-030020-). It bears a Latin inscription commemorating its maker; Peter Walsh 1606.

Table tomb; early Christian period. Its re-use in the fabric of St. David's Church indicates a continuity of sacred space and the repurposing of pre-Christian monuments in medieval ecclesiastical settings.
