What is recorded here

Death in Ballynagarrick followed a brutal, honest shape. A human heart stopped, the body rotted or burned, and the strongest bones were placed inside a clay pot. That pot went into the ground, perhaps with food or a weapon, while the living continued beside the hole. The dead did not vanish into legend; they became soil, memory, and a marker for the field's edge.
