The Hill of Tara
The daguerreotype was still more than a decade in the future when the Lia Fáil was reputedly moved in 1824 to the Forrad from its original location by the Mound of the Hostages. Therefore, there are no photographs of it there. Nor are there any contemporaneous drawings of this ”inauguration stone” depicting it anywhere other than the Forrad, where it was relocated to mark the mass grave of some 400 fallen United Irishmen from 1798’s Battle of Tara Hill.
Engraved cross on the Lia Fáil.
It is likely that the cross etched into the stone dates from this move. Now surrounded by a brickwork plaza which highlights the stone’s stature, when we first photographed the Lia Fáil in 1980 it was not nearly as grandly situated.
Although there is some evidence to the contrary,116 Conor Newman points to the 12th-century description of the Lia Fáil as “the pillar-stone of the hostages” as corroboration of the accounts of its original location atop or beside the Mound of the Hostages.117 With this traditional account guiding him, George Petrie mapped the Lia Fáil in that location in 1839.
In its mythology the stone has a symbolic meaning extending much farther back into the history of the struggles for power in Ireland. It is the origin, according to Geoffrey Keatin

Demolishing the myths at Tara
As the millennium draws to a close, a man has prophesied that the Ark of the Covenant is resting under the hill of Tara. An isolated case of millenniumitis? Rather, a strange case of history repeating itself, as part of the Tara complex was destroyed at the turn of the last century, also in an attempt to unearth the Ark. It is unlikely that this latest fin de siecle request to excavate will be granted, especially as John Hill, the man in search of the Ark, has said it is located in or under the mound of the hostages. This mound was completely excavated in the 1950s . . . there were burials, cremations and a variety of grave-goods found - but no ark.
Mairead Carew, an archaeologist who is writing a book on the British Israelites' search for the Ark, is incensed with the publicity Hill has been getting recently. "I think it's incredible the media who were so tuned in, 100 years ago, to the destruction of a national monument that they launched a campaign to stop it, are now giving credence to Mr Hill who believes `If the Ark of the Covenant is still upon the Earth and not already inside the New Jerusalem' which is a ship the size of a city, that it is going to come down out of the sky (Revelation/Apocalypse 21:2 and 10) then it will be buried with
