The burials date from between 2600 and 1600 BC and consists of a Neolithic long barrow and some 40 or more Bronze Age round barrows, sited along the crest of a low ridge.〔( Normanton Down barrows- An Overview. ) Retrieved 22 March 2009〕 == Excavations == The barrows of Normanton Down, panning across the southern horizon of Stonehenge, have been a part of the scenery of the Salisbury Plain since 2000 BC. Barrow excavation was a popular hobby in the 18th and 19th centuries among amateur archaeologists. They became known as the "barrow-diggers."〔Marsden, B. M. (1999). Early Barrow Diggers. Stroud: Tempus.〕 In 1808, William Cunnington and Sir Richard Colt Hoare excavated various of the barrows, including the most famous and important barrow, the Bush Barrow. Almost all of these barrows are believed to be from the Bronze Age, but several features, including a Long barrow, are earlier, dating to neolithic times. Cunnington and Hoare noted four sets of "curiously huddled together" human remains in the east end of the Long barrow.〔Castleden, R. (1992). Neolithic Britain: New Stone Age Sites of England, Scotland and Wales. New York: Routledge.〕 Unlike many of the early excavations, Hoare published a detailed account of their findings in 1812.〔Hoare, RC, 1812, The Ancient History of South Wiltshire. William Miller: London. (Facsimile edition published by EP Publishing/Wiltshire County Library, 1975)〕 South of the long barrow lies a mortuary enclosure. This rectangular neolithic earthwork, now ploughed out, was discovered by aerial photography and excavated in 1959. Legal protection for many of the barrows was introduced in 1925 when they were designated a Scheduled monument. The area was designated a World Heritage Site in 1987, since which excavation of any sought has been even more strictly controlled. Recent study has therefore focussed on re-appraising existing finds and non-intrusive fieldwork. In 2007, researchers from the University of Birmingham, funded by the Leverhulme Trust, began intensive studies of the artefacts found in all British Bronze Age burials, including those at Bush Barrow. and in 2010 an extensive survey of the condition and context of the barrows was made by English Heritage, as part of their Stonehenge World Heritage Site Landscape Project. 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「Normanton Down Barrows」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク 翻訳と辞書 : 翻訳のためのインターネットリソース Copyright(C) kotoba.ne.jp 1997-2016.
