Irish folklore, like the island itself, is littered with tales of earth mounds known as fairy forts.

The ancient ringforts date back to the Iron Age and have long been entwined with tales of the Aos Sí—supernatural beings from Irish mythology often equated with fairies.

Like many of Ireland's mythological creatures, including the banshee (meaning 'woman of the fairy mound' or 'fairy woman'), many stories of fairy forts have been passed down through generations of Irish people.

Many of these stories warn against the disturbing of fairy forts, as they are believed to be portals to the otherworld.
