That's something now that is really impressive.
These people know what they're at.
And this kind of large, large capstone is almost a statement of veneration for the people that are placed in there or the offerings and a statement of marking the landscape.
by the people who were here.
So like Michelle said there, the idea of sort of
Not so much territoriality as we would see it.
But you know, occupying the landscape, being visible in the landscape.
So you have two tombs here, right side by side, one of which has a very, very distinct and striking capstone.
You know, it it's saying something more.
So the court tomb is large, but it has a large cairn, it's about thirty meters long.
This then has a single large, large capstone.
So if
you compare it to something like the Brown Till Dal Dalman down in Carlo, which has a capstone probably in excess of a hundred tons.
It's almost that same statement again.
Um, that look at this huge capstone that we were able to raise up
Um and put in position.
for the veneration of our ancestors and like I said, the to take control or take possession of the area.
But the capsule itself now, currently, unfortunately, um in the nineteen sixties, was pushed into a nearby hollow.
Um so it's just barely visible above the ground.
Um so it's you know it's it's a subtle feature now, but on excavating it, we just kept going down and down the side of it and found eventually that it was approximately a metre deep.
