Bohonagh
Bohonagh is a recumbent stone circle located 2.4 km east of Rosscarbery, County Cork, Ireland. The circle is thought to date from the Bronze Age. A boulder burial is sited nearby (grid ref: 308 368).〔(【引用サイトリンク】 work=The Megalithic Portal )〕
==Features==
The stone circle comprised 13 stones set in a circle with a diameter of 30 ft. Four out of the 13 stones are missing and three were re-erected after excavation. Two portal stones are set radially on an east-west axis to the recumbent stones and are 240 cm high. At just under 8 ft, these stone are among the tallest of any Irish stone circle. The axis from these stones to the large axial-stone on the west side, points to sunset at the equinoxes.〔 Many of the stones have quartz inclusions and many small pieces of quartz are associated with the circle.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 work=Megalithics.com )〕
A boulder burial is sited 20m east of the circle, and its large capstone (weighing almost 20 tons〔) has seven or more small cup-marks on the upper surface. Two of the three small supporting stones are of quartz and a fourth has been uprooted. A nearby loose slab also features cup-marks. The complex, which included a wooden house (which had been excavated) is of Bronze Age date.〔
