The Fogu,Carn Euny Ancient Settlement,Cornwall

            Inside the Fogu
The Fogu dates from about 500 B.C.
Over the years there have been various uses to which Archaeologists have said they were used for including :

A place of refuge.You don't put a place of refuge in the middle of your settlement.
A food store. As you can see from the puddles and moss, Granite is porous and you could not store food here.
A birthing chamber or place where some type of "Religious" ceremony was performed.

Fogu's are unique to The Lands-end Peninsular.
