Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
Reports work on a small annular earthwork apparently the focus for ritual and burial throughout the Neo and EBA and constructed in four main phases. Two third millennium BC concentric timber-post-circles were demolished and the tops of the post pits sealed by substantial settings of boulders. This in turn was succeeded by a simple ring-cairn in the EBA, to which was later added a rectangular platform of boulders with a feature like a facade on one side of the ring-cairn. A long sequence of ceremonial activity is indicated, to which considerable funerary activity may be regarded as secondary in importance. There are notes on `Identification of charcoal samples' by Jennifer Jones (23), `Pollen analysis' by Samantha Chinn (23--5), `The lithic material' by Robert Young (26--9), and `The human remains' by Mandy Marlow (32--9). | ||||||||||||
