As one of the best preserved and densest prehistoric monumental landscapes in Europe, the passage tombs of Sligo bear exceptional testimony to the worldview and sacred geography of Neolithic people, notably their ability to use ritual architecture to transform a large geographical area in accordance with their religious beliefs and sentiments.
This talk will present some aspects of the rationale for our nomination of this landscape for UNESCO WHS status
