Hi,
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:fortification%20type=ringfort?uselang=en-GB Was someone running a project on mapping / tidying-up raths / ringforts? I notice many are mapped in Cork and Kilkenny, but few elsewhere. I haven't come across many of these until the last few weeks. In that time, I seem to have been tagging them incorrectly. Can I check the correct tagging is: historic=archaeological_site site_type=fortification fortification_type=ringfort ? I checked http://stat.latlon.org/ie/latest/ for the word "fort", (I didn't check for name~fort or description~fort) and there are many tagging variations (not all of these will be ringforts). archaeological_site=earthworks archaeological_site=fort archaeological_site=ring_fort archaeological_site=ringfort castle_type=fortification castle_type=fortress earthworks=rath earthworks=ringfort earthworks=ringfort (rath) fortification=ring_ditch fortification_type=hill_fort fortification_type=hillfort fortification_type=ringfort historic=fort historic=fortification historic=hillfort historic=ring fort historic=ring_fort inscription=Ring fort military=fort note=Ancient fort note=Ancient ring fort note=Fawney (fainne) means ring, maybe the site of a ringfort? Was also slang to kiss the King/Lords ring. Very interesting as the road is called the Royal Oak note=Fort note=Not sure if these are Barrows or rath, or what the difference is!
