\r\nEarly Christian Monastic Site
\r\n
\r\nNendrum Monastery is situated on Mahee Island in Strangford Lough approached along narrow, twisting manes and causeways signposted off the A22 immediately South of Comber.
\r\n
\r\nNendrum was an island monastery, traditionally founded in the 5th Century by St. Machaoi. A small Benedictine cell was founded here in the late 12th Century. It was a parish church in 1306, but abandoned during the 15th Century for Tullynakill Church which you can also visit.
\r\n
\r\nNendrum is one of the best examples of an Early Christian Irish Monastery to understand because of the early use of stone and the extensive excavations carried out in the 1920's and more recently. Within three concentric dry-stoned walled enclosures the central enclosure has a church ruin with a sun-dial, remains of a round tower and graveyard. The middle enclosure contains remains of huts and workshops and the outer enclosure, fields. Recent work on the shore has discovered a pier and a tidal mill.","photographer":"Irishphotographer Kim Shatwell","width":500,"id":3128097,"height":387,"takendate":"","payment_groups_id":0.0,"server_id":18,"link":"photo_3128097.html","src":"nendrum castle copy.jpg","home":0,"purchase_instruction":"Nendrum Castle ","galleries_id":114135,"gallery":0}); backgrounds[3128098] = clik.newPhoto({"item_price":"","section_code":"gallery","caption":"Dreamy Sunset","location":"","photo_ref":"","description":"Today i was lucky enough to be off work so i took a walk around my local lake

\r\nLISNAMINTRY RATH - Lisnamintry
\r\n
\r\nDating from 500 - 1000 AD a rath was a homestead, surrounded by a ditch and a wooden fence which protected the inhabitants but also acted as an enclosure for the animals. At Lisnamintry the pattern of ridges, mounds and trenches along with the position and density of hedges suggest a second entrance proving that this was a site of major importance. Although there are over 45,000 ring forts throughout Ireland they fell out of use around the beginning of the 2nd millennium due to the struggle for power and territory across the island, their locations were well chosen and as can be seen churches were often built on the same site.","photographer":"Irishphotographer Kim Shatwell","width":500,"id":3128213,"height":348,"takendate":"","payment_groups_id":0.0,"server_id":18,"link":"photo_3128213.html","src":"Golden Gateway copy.jpg","home":0,"purchase_instruction":"Golden Gateway Rath","galleries_id":114135,"gallery":0}); backgrounds[3128221] = clik.newPhoto({"item_price":"","section_code":"gallery","caption":"Clonlum Cairn","location":"","photo_ref":"","description":"Clonlum South Cairn
\r\nAt Clonlum South Cairn, located to the east of Slieve Gullion, you will find the remains of an important megalithic tomb. Clonlum cairn shows signs of the transition between the court tomb builders and the portal tomb builders and is thought to date from around 2000BC. It is thought this tomb depleted in the early 19th Century when its stones were used to build Killevy Castle.
\r\n
\r\nArchaeology
\r\n
\r\nThis is an ancient area. People have lived here for over 6,000 years and have left their traces in stone, in megalithic tombs, burial chambers and cairns. The area contains the remains of twenty or so large stone tombs. Many of them, such as Ballymacdermot, are situated in prominent positions with magnificent views over the countryside. The monument at Ballykeel is also an outstanding example of a portal tomb and the south Cairn on the summit of Slieve Gullion has the distinction of being the highest surviving passage tomb in Britain or Ireland. Excavations at several of these burial monuments have uncovered stone tools, pottery and human remains.

\r\nThis large and extremely scenic site covers the northern half of the Slieve League peninsula in County Donegal, stretching from Ardara in the east towards Glencolmbkille and Glen Bay in the west. Along its northern side, the site is fringed by a range of coastal habitats, including sea cliffs, stacks, islets, caves, sand dunes, the Loughros Beg Bay estuary and salt marshes. Inland, the area is generally mountainous, rising to 511m O.D. south of Lough Croaghballaghdown.

Such a monument is not always precisely circular and often forms an ellipse, or a setting of four stones laid on an arc of a circle. The number of stones can vary between four and 60 purposely erected standing stones, and often contain burial pits or chambers.
\r\n
\r\nPrehistoric stone circles are found in many parts of the world.
\r\n
\r\nA stone circle is different from a henge or isolated monolith, although each of these features is often encountered in a single location. Earlier features, such as the Goseck circle in Saxony-Anhalt, may have served similar religious\/calendrical\/astronomical purposes, though probably at a much earlier epoch. Stone circles usually date from the late Neolithic \/ early Stone Age, that is, c. 7000-3500 B.C.
\r\n
\r\nArchaeological evidence, coupled with information from astronomy, geology and mathematics[citation needed], suggests that the purpose of stone circles was connected with prehistoric peoples' beliefs, and their construction can be used to infer about ancient engineering, social organisation, and religion. Their precise function will always be open to debate, but a practical purpose could exist in the form of use as a burial ground, a astronomical marker points for use in determining calendar-related event timings, and usable methodologies have been suggested. Since astronomical event timings are intrinsically dependent on location, it is also conceivable that observations taken could form the basis of some understanding concerning geography, and proceeding from that, derivation of standardised units of measurement for not only time, as in the calendar hypothesis, but also for distance.
\r\n
\r\nBecause of the timescale involved, many astronomical parameters have changed, further-complicating analysis of the hypothetical purposes of these monuments. Even with modern technology such as computerised star-map simulations, without a firm date in mind, large margins of doubt are unavoidable. Certainly until recently, accurate retrospective calculations of many heavenly events, tied to each given location, made a comprehensive survey of monuments unapproachable. Current technology improves our chance of gaining an insight into possible motives and uses, and perhaps patterns may emerge when large numbers of arrangements are compared systematically by automated means which are able to examine large numbers of sites as well as large ranges of dating.

\r\n
\r\nThe rowan's mythic roots go back to classical times. Greek mythology tells of how Hebe the goddess of youth, dispensed rejuvenating ambrosia to the gods from her magical chalice. When, through carelessness, she lost this cup to demons, the gods sent an eagle to recover the cup. The feathers and drops of blood which the eagle shed in the ensuing fight with the demons fell to earth, where each of them turned into a rowan tree. Hence the rowan derived the shape of its leaves from the eagle's feathers and the appearance of its berries from the droplets of blood.
