The type of rock art is found in Yorkshire and Northumberland and then in Galicia and Spain and so forth. It's quite common. Kilmartin Glen, yeah. Yeah, Kilmartin Glen, exactly. Now, that's a more restricted form of art than what's found in the passage tombs. The Paschum's designs are slightly different. They're actually more sophisticated, you know, in terms of aesthetics and so forth.

You know, you think of the Newgrange Entrance Stone and also some of the megalithic art in Brittany and other places like Gavrinus, etc. You know, it's actually quite sophisticated type of artwork.

And they seem in some cases to almost move away from the geometric designs in the case of Nouth, particularly in the Boyne Valley, where they seem to kind of get carried away with making designs and running along the shoulders of stones and things like that. And they sort of lose touch with the geometric sort of origins of the artwork, which is very interesting.

Absolutely, yes. And of course, it's repeated then in the case of Newgrange inside in the end chamber as well on one of the stones there. There's a very famous example of it there as well. It's an extraordinary feature of the megalithic art in the Boyne Valley that the richest concentration is to be found at Noth.

And in fact, I always think of Noth as this place where they're developing the art and, you know, they're experimenting and pushing the boundaries. But probably the finest example of megalithic art in the Boyne Valley is that Newgrange entrance stone. And very much not far behind it is Curbstone 52 at the back of Newgrange. And then there is Curbstone 67 at Newgrange.

These are the three big decorated curbstones. There are other decorated curbstones in Newgrange. But these three stand apart. And what's interesting about them is that if you were to take away those three from Newgrange, you would say that the megalithic art at Newgrange, especially on the curbs, is not in the same league as the megalithic art at Nouth, you know.

But these ones lift Newgrange and actually... There's certainly a curbstone 1, the entrance stone, and the one directly across from it, curbstone 52. And remember that these are the ones that are on the axis of the rising sun. And, you know, if you drew a line through the site and through the passage.
