13 at Knowth post excavation and reconstructiion, in 2002. |
|
Site 13 at Knowth was invisible before it was uncovered by excavation. The mound was about 13 meters in diameter, and 31 kerbstones were found in their orininal positions. The passage and chamber are bottle-shaped and undifferentiated, and in total are 6 meters long, with a sillstone set about halfway dividing passage and chamber. The passage is oriented about 15° east of south, almost the same angle as Site 12.
Kerbstones of Site 13 on the left, with the great mound on the right. Site 13 almost touches the kerb of the great mound, and is obviously an older site, as the kerb of the hugh mound is indented to accomodate the smaller mound, as can be seen in the excavation picture above. Engravings were found on one passage stone and 4 kerbstones; and there is art on another possible displaced kerbstone which was found nearby. The only finds were 2 pieces of flint. |
