Bowl barrow, dating to the Early Bronze Age (c. 2000–1500 BCE), is a type of round barrow typically used for single inhumation burials. This example is part of the Plumpton Plain round barrow cemetery, which is significant for illustrating the funerary practices and social organisation of Bronze Age communities in southern England.
