Exploring Waterford's Ancient Monuments

Mysterious Rock Markings

Mysterious Rock Markings

"It was on the approach to ‘Coum Eag’ which is a dry Coum (hollow) in the Comeragh mountains that I came across this very interesting heather covered stone.

The earthfast rock has five of these curious rough circular markings on its upper surface with a further two continuing the line onto its vertical side (shaded in photo).

The curious depressions range in diameter from 2 – 5 cm with the five on the top surface covering an overall length of 30 cm.

What they represent is very difficult to say. They certainly appear to be man made and not naturally formed".

What is very interesting here though, is that the markings bear a striking resemblance to those found on a Kerbstone at Knockroe passage tomb in Co. Kilkenny. (photo below)

Hi there! Quick question that's totally off topic. Do you know how to make your site mobile friendly? My website looks weird when viewing from my iphone. I'm trying to find a theme or plugin that might be able to fix this issue. If you have any suggestions, please share. Many thanks! styleby prenumeration premie distja.teswomango.com/map11.php

Fascinating blog! Is your theme custom made or did you download it from somewhere? A theme like yours with a few simple tweeks would really make my blog stand out. Please let me know where you got your design. Many thanks pikeur cindy rea ucpit.sewomabest.com/map28.php

Hi there! Do you know if they make any plugins to protect against hackers? I'm kinda paranoid about losing everything I've worked hard on. Any recommendations? elit original alu niysti.sewomabest.com/map18.php

With havin so much content do you ever run into any issues of plagorism or copyright violation? My site has a lot of completely unique content I've either authored myself or outsourced but it appears a lot of it is popping it up all over the web without my agreement. Do you know any solutions to help prevent content from being ripped off? I'd really appreciate it. present för honom sepec.prizsewoman.com/map4.php
