The hills rise to {{convert|276|m|ft}} above sea level, the highest point in the county. On the hilltops are a group of megalithic tombs dating back to the 4th millennium BC. These tombs are also known as Slieve na Calliagh,[2] or as the Loughcrew tombs. The rays of the equinox sunrise shine down the passageway of the Cairn T and illuminate an inner chamber filled with megalithic stonecarvings. It is deemed one of the four main passage tomb sites in Ireland and is a protected National Monument. Slieve na Calliagh includes the hills of Carnbane West, Carrickbrack, Carnbane East and Patrickstown Hill. The hills are named after the Cailleach, the divine hag of Irish mythology. Legend has it that the monuments were created when a giant hag, striding across the land, dropped her cargo of large stones from her apron. {{clear|left}}See also
