'saucer-type' cairn = saucer barrow ?
Jun 23, 2004, 19:42
I can find no references to the former site-type but many to the latter. Apparently saucer barrows tend to be for female burials, so it is interesting to note that the nearby site of Dun Deardail is associated with the Ulster princess Deirdre. I therefore wonder if there is a link ?
