Abstract
Amesbury Barrow 51: excavations 1960
Paul Ashbee
1 - 60
SU 114427. Re-excavation of a severely degraded bell barrow opened by Cunnington in 1805 revealed a central grave containing a wooden mortuary house and some bones, including the trephined roundel mentioned by Colt Hoare. Cunnington had found three seemingly stratified contracted burials, heads to N, with beakers and b-t arrowheads. The new excavation revealed two beaker burials in the mound and ditch respectively. The beakers are discussed and attempts made to resolve the dating problems. The barrow's interrupted ditches and mortuary house are discussed with parallels. Don Brothwell et al analyse the skeletal remains; the trephination was neatly cut but nonetheless fatal.
The excavation of an early Anglo-Saxon cemetery at Collingbourne Ducis
Christopher Gingell
61 - 98
SU 245541. Within the part of the site being developed for housing, thirty-three graves were excavated, most being poorly furnished but others adding considerably to the range of Wiltshire AS metalwork. An early date (?c 500-650) is suggested and links with the early West Saxon settlement of the Thames Valley are discussed. Reports on skeletons, textiles, ornaments (including an equal-armed brooch twice repaired) and weapons are provided. Au(adp)

Indeed its owner resisted scheduling under the 1882 Act and it was only when two stones fell in 1900 that he fenced the monument, restored it and began to charge for admission. However much erosion from over-visiting and vandalism had already resulted by 1886. Scheduling finally followed in 1913. Au(abr)
