Please make a donation (below) towards the cost of generating a professional archaeological assessment of the M3 motorway at the Hill of Tara.
..
TaraWatch has opened a PayPal account for the sole purpose of raising money to pay for an archaeological consultancy company to assess the 38 sites being excavated between Navan and Dunshaughlin and generate a report. This report wil be used for complaints to the European Union, World Monuments Fund, and other bodies. This is an emergency situation, and time is of the essence. Please make a one time donation, of an amount of your choosing. If you do not have a PayPal account you can still use a credit or debit card. Please pass the word, as this is our last realistic hope for saving Tara from the M3 motorway.
We will contract with a company abroad like Oxford Archaeology to do the work, as it is common knowledge that Irish-based firms will not do it, because of their dependence on the National Roads Authority for contracts. Oxford did the Kampsax Report on Carrickmines Castle and the M50 for the EU, which was a daming review of what happened there.
US Dollar donation:
