Knocknarea

Knocknarea (; )〔(Placenames Database of Ireland )〕 is a large hill west of Sligo town in County Sligo, Republic of Ireland.
The high limestone hill is visually striking, as it is monolithic in appearance and stands in a prominent position on the Cúil Irra peninsula between the bays of Sligo and Ballysadare. At the summit is a large mound (or cairn) of loose stones. Although it has not been excavated, it is believed to conceal a Neolithic passage tomb.〔
==Name==
Knocknarea is an anglicization of an Irish name. "Knock" means hill, but the etymology of the rest of the name is disputed. The Placenames Database of Ireland gives the Irish name as ''Cnoc na Riabh'' (meaning "hill of the stripes").〔 However, P.W. Joyce preferred the interpretation ''Cnoc na Riaghadh'' ("hill of the executions"). ''Cnoc na Riogha'' ("hill of the kings") has also been suggested,〔 as has ''Cnoc na Ré'' ("hill of the moon").
