Abstract
Round barrows and dykes as landscape metaphors
Christopher Tilley
185 - 203
Outlines the results of phenomenological research on the significance of landscape features, in particular ridges and coombe (dry valley) systems, in relation to the locations of Bronze Age round barrows and Late Bronze Age/Early Iron Age crossridge and spur dykes constructed along the Ebble-Nadder chalk ridge in Wiltshire, in central southern England. It considers the locations of these monuments in a holistic manner and argues that together the round barrows, and then subsequently the dykes, network and draw together very different aspects of the topography in narratives about life and death. The round barrows differentially reference the significance of these places metaphorically through a combination of their specific locations. By contrast the monumental courses of the dykes physically impose themselves on, and objectify the significance of, the same landscape features but in a radically different manner indicating both continuity and difference in the historical significance of place.
