Does anyone know what this is from?

I have extremely vague recollections.



I am assuming it was about neolithic people, probably one of those things RTE launched in the 80s trying to make Irish people proud of their prehistoric ancestors... even the name of it?!

Yes i think it's from the 'pathways in history 1' textbook for primary schools! (1980's edition)

the name was in white letters in the top right corner as you looked at it..
it was probably educational company....??? ha now i have to rack my brain!

Well, that's an Ogham stone, so it's definitely something from school. Other than that, I'm boggled.
