Long barrows are ancient, communal tombs. They are elongated mounds, built of earth,
or chalk and earth, covering a wood or stone ‘house’ for the dead.
Recent research shows that burials typically took place over no more than three or four
generations and perhaps as little as a decade.
Over 300 long barrows have been found in Britain, with concentrations on the Wessex
downs and the Cotswolds.
They were often built on a prominent hill, some distance from where people were
living.
Perhaps they served as a territorial marker as well as a burial chamber.
"What did barrows look like when first raised?
At Fussell's Lodge long barrow, near Salisbury,
the discovery of post-holes in a lengthy,
trapezoidal structure showed that initially
there had been a structure resembling a
Neolithic long house of the type found widely
on the Continent. Subsequent long barrow
excavations showed that this formula was
widely followed. These surrogate long houses
contained deposits of human bone that were
added to and subtracted from, for more than a
millennium, and rites pertaining to ancestors
and fertility were no doubt performed. Long
barrows, the long houses of the dead, should
be regarded as shrines rather than mausolea."

Early Neolithic 2013

  • 1. Long barrows are ancient, communal tombs. They are elongated mounds, built of earth, or chalk and earth, covering a wood or stone ‘house’ for the dead. Recent research shows that burials typically took place over no more than three or four generations and perhaps as little as a decade. Over 300 long barrows have been found in Britain, with concentrations on the Wessex downs and the Cotswolds. They were often built on a prominent hill, some distance from where people were living. Perhaps they served as a territorial marker as well as a burial chamber.

At Fussell's Lodge long barrow, near Salisbury, the discovery of post-holes in a lengthy, trapezoidal structure showed that initially there had been a structure resembling a Neolithic long house of the type found widely on the Continent.

These surrogate long houses contained deposits of human bone that were added to and subtracted from, for more than a millennium, and rites pertaining to ancestors and fertility were no doubt performed.
