Wetwang Slack
Wetwang Slack is an Iron Age archaeological site containing remains of the Arras culture and chariot burial tradition of East Yorkshire.
The site is in a dry valley on the north side of the village of Wetwang.〔John Dent. 2002. "Three cart burials from Wetwang" in ''Celts from Antiquity'', Antiquity Publications. p248〕 The archaeological remains consist of three chariot burial inhumations, each containing skeletal remains above the remains of a dismantled cart or chariot. All the skeletal remains from the three inhumations were aligned on a north-south axis, with the head pointing north.〔Stead, I.M. 1991. ''Iron Age Cemeteries in East Yorkshire'' English Heritage Archaeological Report No. 2, London: English Heritage〕 Many of the finds excavated from the site are now preserved in the British Museum.〔(British Museum Collection )〕
==Burial 1==
The grave lay within a triangular ditched enclosure c 6.5–7 m wide, but the northern and eastern ditches have been removed by machine.〔 The remains were of a young male adult lying on his right side with his knees drawn up to his body. Pig bones had been placed on top of the body. The iron tyres and nave hoops of both wheels survived, as did several spokes from the wheel. The axle of the chariot was in length.
