Cairn

A Cairn is a pile of stones.

Typically, a cairn is used as a monument, to mark a path or to designate the summit of a hill. These present-day traditions emerged from the Bronze Age habit of putting Cists into cairns, which would be situated in conspicuous positions, often on the skyline above the village of the deceased.
