Ancient Tomb Art Found in Path of Irish Highway
The latest excavations at Lismullin revealed part of a large stone monument, or megalith, decorated with engravings dating to the Late Stone Age or about 4000 BC. Unearthed 50 meters from the temple, the megalith manifests a series of zigzags, concentric circles, and arcs. Archaeologist Mary Deevy asserted this megalith was likely a "curbstone from a passage tomb". Read the full story by James Owen in National Geographic News.
