EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the enigmatic interior of Carrowkeel Cairn No. 3, an ancient burial site located in County Sligo, Republic of Ireland. Dating back to the Neolithic period, around 3800-3200 BC, this megalithic tomb is one of the most intriguing and best-preserved sites in the Carrowkeel complex. The image offers a rare glimpse into the past, revealing the intricately designed burial chambers that have withstood the test of time. The dark, narrow passageway, lined with large stones, leads towards the entrance, shrouded in shadows. The faint light filtering in from the entrance creates an eerie yet mesmerizing atmosphere, adding to the sense of mystery and wonder that surrounds these ancient structures. The burial chambers at Carrowkeel Cairn No. 3 are believed to have been used for communal burials, with the remains of over 60 individuals discovered within. The site is also known for its unique architectural features, including the corbelled roofs and the intricate stonework that adorns the interior walls. Despite the passage of centuries, the site remains an important part of Ireland's rich cultural heritage. The photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the ingenuity and craftsmanship of our ancestors, and the profound connection they had to the land and the natural world. This image, taken in the early 1900s, invites us to explore the depths of our past and to marvel at the enduring legacy of our ancient ancestors.
