Desecration and destruction on the Hill of Tara - the "heart and soul of Ireland"! The rolling valleys around the Hill of Tara, once Ireland's most important political and spiritual seat of power-from prehistoric through early historic times, have been zoned for a double-tolled superhighway, shopping malls and housing developments: in short, urban sprawl. Construction sites are being put in place, ancient oaks and elm trees have been cut down! Rare archaeological sites have been removed from this ancient "mosaic of monuments". The _Hill of Tara_ (http://www.sacredsites.com/europe/ireland/ireland.html) is listed as one of the sacred sites of Ireland. Sacred sites are the most loved and visited places on planet earth. Since prehistoric times they have exerted a mysterious attraction on billions of pilgrims from every region and religion. These holy places have the power to heal the body, enlighten the mind, and awaken the soul. - More information on this and a petition to sign at http://www.anamcarafestival.org/act_now.htm and read also _IRELAND'S SHAME: A SUPERHIGHWAY ACROSS THE HILL OF TARA_ (http://www.anamcarafestival.org/irelands_shame.htm) and then see the before an after pictures at _http://www.anamcarafestival.org/tara.htm_ (http://www.anamcarafestival.org/tara.htm) Recommended by Maireid Sullivan ([email protected]) ************************************** See what's free at http://www.aol.com.
