Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
The West Heath barrow group consisted of a nucleated cluster of nine mounds together with three outliers. Barrows I-IV were excavated during 1973-5. This report describes the excavation of Barrows V-IX undertaken prior to their destruction by sand quarrying in 1980. Barrows V, VIII and IX contained no burials and were simple turf mounds. Barrow VII consisted of two ditches encircling a disturbed burial pit. Barrow VI, although only a simple turf stack, covered a multiple burial pit containing collared urns and cremations. Considerable environmental data was recovered from a study of the soils, pollen and macroscopic plant remains. A series of Carbon 14 dates suggests a date range of c. 2100- 1450 B.C. for the development of the cemetery. | ||||||||||||
