Burton Fleming is an Iron Age archaeological site from the Arras culture of East Yorkshire. The site is named from the parish of Burton Fleming within which the Iron Age cemetery lies, and is closely associated with the Iron Age barrows at Rudston (the nearest parish). The archaeological remains consist of 22 burials on the Argam Lane site and 42 at the Bell Slack site.〔Stead, Ian. 1991. ''Iron Age Cemeteries in East Yorkshire''. London: English Heritage. p. 17〕 ==Argam Lane== In 1972, 22 square-barrows were excavated. All had central graves into which the human remains were placed and lacked secondary burials either in the barrow or the associated ditches.〔 Nineteen graves were arranged in two rows, with the remaining three to one side.〔 The skeletal remains were all found crouched or contracted,〔Stead, Ian. 1991. ''Iron Age Cemeteries in East Yorkshire''. London: English Heritage. p. 212〕 with the majority aligned on a north-south axis. Grave goods were variable, but where they appeared consisted of ceramic vessels, copper-alloy or iron brooches, or sheep bones. A single shale bracelet was found on the forearm of one female skeleton.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Burton Fleming (archaeological site)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
