Megalithic Art in the chamber of Fourknocks Passage Tomb
Great photos! Really show the detail.
Megalithic Art in the chamber of Fourknocks Passage Tomb. Just inside the chamber to the left of the entrance is one of the few possible representations of a human face from the Neolithic Period in Ireland. The Face Stone is about 3 feet high and looks like a prehistoric smiley face.
