What is recorded here

Killaclohane Portal Tomb stands as Kerry’s oldest man-made structure, built around 3800 BC when people first carried agriculture into that western landscape. Its massive green sandstone chamber faced north toward Scotia's Glen, inviting the dead and the living into the same deliberate line of sight. Burials continued there through the Neolithic and into the Bronze Age, suggesting the stones remained a focal point long after their makers disappeared. The tomb nearly collapsed in 2015, but conservation revealed pots, flint tools and cremated remains, returning some of its lost human rhythm to view.

A decorated irregularly-shaped limestone slab, containing a design resembling lierne which is in the garden of a house in Main St. Dingle. It is probably part of a tomb surround. See attached photograph taken from Bradley 1987, Fig. 29. The above description is derived from J. Cuppage et al., 'Archaeological Survey of the Dingle Peninsula.'

A possible portal dolmen component, dating to the Neolithic or early Bronze Age; the lierne-like decoration suggests ritual or symbolic significance.
