Knockmany passage tomb, or Anya's Cove, is an ancient burial monument on the summit of Knockmany Hill, near the village of Augher in County Tyrone [1]. It is the remains of a Neolithic passage tomb and its stones are decorated with rare megalithic art [1]. The monument is a passage tomb built during the Neolithic, around 3000 BC [1]. The chamber was originally covered with a stone cairn and earth [1]. The 13 sandstone orthostats remain: these are of height 3–7 feet, and three of them show carved decorations including concentric circles, spirals and zigzags [1]. They are similar to the decorated stones of the tombs at Loughcrew and Newgrange [1].
