Bowl barrow and disc barrow, dating to the Early Bronze Age (c. 2000–1500 BCE), are types of burial mounds commonly found in round barrow cemeteries across southern England. Their presence on Black Down indicates a significant prehistoric funerary landscape used for communal burial and ritual activity.
