Bowl barrow, dating to the Early Bronze Age (c. 2000–1500 BCE), is a type of burial monument typically containing a central cist or burial pit. This example is part of a significant round barrow cemetery on Horton Down, reflecting early communal burial practices and social organisation in southern England.
