Rock Art, BARNABAH
Cupmarked stone in Ireland, dating from the Bronze Age
On the upper reaches of the stony shore, on the W side of Lough Hyne. At least eight cupmarks (diam. 0.03-0.08m; D 0.01-0.07m) are visible on the upper surface of a roughly rectangular stone (L 0.95m; Wth 0.28m; T 0.2m). The largest cupmark (diam. 0.08m; D 0.07m) is at the centre of the stone. In addition, some further slight depressions are visible on the stone, but it is unclear if they are abandoned or trial carvings or even natural features. Another cupmarked stone (CO150-092----) lies 0.8m to the N. The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 5' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2009).
