Altar Wedge Tomb: Luni-solar rises

East centred view with luni-solar trajectories c.2000BCE from Altar Wedge Tomb, Cork, Ireland. Summer and winter cross-quarters have good enough markers either side of the double topped local hill. The equinox has a good mark to the left of the main top from the survey position behind the tomb but moving foreward would shift it to the right.
