| Abstract: | Scientific dating of burials from the excavated Bronze Age barrows at Sproxton and Eaton has been undertaken as part of a wider study of the log coffin burial tradition in England and Wales. The results have provided a more precise and reliable chronology for the interments at both sites. The log coffin burials at the sites lie within the temporal boundaries for that tradition established elsewhere in Britain, with the examples at Sproxton occurring about a century after the Eaton ones. | ||
