Review:
The Hill of Tara is an archeological complex located near the famous River Boyne. The large complex runs between Dunshaughlin and Navan. Throughout the site, more than 30 prehistoric monuments are visible today. According to local legend, the site was the seat of the High King of Ireland and the ancient home of the gods. There are a number of interesting ancient monuments and earthworks at the site, many of which are quite old, with the Mound of the Hostages having been constructed around the year 2500 BC. It is one of only two monuments to have been excavated, however it is believed that a huge temple once stood on the site.
