Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
Excavations were undertaken at a mound at Carsington Pasture, Derbyshire. The mound had been trenched in an unauthorised excavation, for which there were no surviving records, in the 1980s, but was thought to be a `lost' Bronze Age round barrow. The area of the illicit trench was re-excavated and extended to provide a complete section through the mound. The section indicated that the barrow was an earthen bowl barrow that had been constructed over a primary phase turf ring. Human bones were present in the backfill of the previous excavation suggesting that a probable primary inhumation had been disturbed at the time. A secondary undisturbed Bronze Age cremation burial, dated by radiocarbon to c.1700--1500 BC and containing the remains of an adult male, was found below an inverted Biconical Urn near the crest of the mound in the southwest quadrant. Broken bone tweezers were found in the redeposited pyre debris around the urn. The barrow subsequently became incorporated in a field system, which can be traced across Carsington Pasture and which is thought to be of post-Roman date. The mound had later become subsumed within the upcast of adjacent post-medieval lead workings. Includes specialist reports on | |||||||||||||
