Wow...brings back memories. Wife and I spent 11 days in Ireland 2 years ago and we visited that exact spot. The Burren is among the most amazing places I have ever been to. The New Mexico desert is another. Thanks for posting.

It's math. He's a meth lab.
and integrate f along Γ. On the "top" part of [−a,a] we get the integral that we want. On the "bottom" part, the square root will pick up a minus sign from the branch cut and another minus sign from the orientation. It's straight forward to check that the integrals over the small circles tend to 0 as their radii tend to 0, and the integral over the large circle is basically the residue of f at ∞. More precisely, by the residue theorem
2∫a−aa2−x2−−−−−−√x2+1dx=2πi(Res(f;i)+Res(f;−i)−Res(f;∞))=2πi(a2+1−−−−−√2i+−a2+1−−−−−√−2i+i)
which simplifies to the stated equality. (Note that Res(f;∞)=Res(−1z2f(1z);0).)

I see this I think of a platform for cremation. I wonder if there is any evidence of carbon or burning on the top? The Ashes would go into the tomb once done.
Zoroastrians practice an open air burial. They have platforms where they place the lay the bodies and let the elements and the scavengers do the rest. They would have an elevated platform similar to this.

Was there an explanation on why there was a fortress on the Atlantic shore of Inishmore? Like, who they feared would invade or were at odds with at the time?
That edifice indicates a huge expenditure in manpower and effort. There had to be a very good reason for its existence.

There is much speculation as to the reason for its location. A portion of the structure has fallen into the Atlantic as the limestone underpinning the cliffs is worn away by the sea:
