Abstract:		 The report covers the observations made during the examination of groups of iron nails retrieved during the excavation of cremation burials. The results point to biers and coffins having been made from oak or ash timbers, whereas small boxes or caskets were made of various woods. There seems to be a clear distinction between the wood used for these structures and the fuel used for the pyres. The metalwork retrieved from each burial also only seems to consist of a small proportion that would have been required to make each object, for example only sufficient nails to hold together one corner.
